✦ KATE BOSS (Baltimore-Pittsburgh / US)
http://via-2015.com/pittsburgh/artist/kate-boss/
the name says it all for the First Lady of Space is the Place Records. Kate Boss has been flashing a middle finger at the idea of the vacuous “It” girl for years. To quote the iconic pop-feminist, Lily Allen, you can find her in the studio, not in the kitchen. Blending R&B, Hip Hop, and Club music with the darker corners of vogue and ballroom into an ominously seductive sound, Kate’s philosophy is keep it dark; keep it sultry; run the club.
✦ YAEJI (NYC - Pittsburgh / US)
http://via-2015.com/pittsburgh/artist/yaeji/
Yaeji (k r a e j i) is a NY born and Seoul raised DJ/Producer/Vocalist. She started her DJ career at Pittsburgh’s WRCT88.3 and has performed at various venues in Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Seoul, and New York. Her production and vocals hold influences from R&B, jazz, dream pop, and house.
