Artist Statements

45° Flamenco with Jose Faus

Music, Poetry and Dance come together in this bi-lingual performance that explores different cultures that co-exist in music, rhythm, songs and spoken word. I am a bailaora/flamenco dancer. Onstage I become transparent. Each performance I shed my shell, put away my mask and expose what I keep hidden in my corners and most secret passageways. I moved to Sevilla, Spain in 2005 to immerse myself in flamenco and stayed for 14 years. In theaters, studios and on the streets I learned with all my heroes and attended performances both professional and impromptu. Performing onstage in Sevilla taught me how to respond in the moment, without fear and from the heart. And now I share those experiences, creating something new from something known.

Danielle Ate the Sandwich

A half hour performance of original folk songs performed on ukulele and guitar. The songs and presentation will cover truth and honesty, exploring topics of family dynamics, grief, heartbreak and the humor we find in those moments. The performance will explore Convivencia through the conflict and harmony of how we live through the human experience.

Danielle Ate the Sandwich is the stage name of Danielle Anderson, a singer/songwriter, recording artist, and comedic performer based in Kansas City, MO. Combining soft, lilting vocals with poignant honesty and wit, Danielle Ate the Sandwich writes songs for the biggest and smallest moments of life.
