fall raye
(they/them)

Fall's artistic vision is to create work that speaks from their own experiences as a trans person, as a person healing from their own traumas, and through their interpersonal relationships, to create a listening experience where the audience can feel less alone, seen, and in community with others. Through the vulnerable art of creative and improvised music, Fall aims to create a unique musical experience every time they play, to explore new avenues in music and to reflect the improvisatory nature of living on Earth. Fall's music connects to their breath, heartbeat, and nature, making every spontaneous composition a living body of sound. Fall's work is a direct call to dismantle systems of oppression and exploitation, and provides a lens through which we can see a vision of a society where we all are truly valued and taken care of.
