Description du concert
MASKS REQUIRED We invite you to the Queer Choir's Spring Showcase at the Freight & Salvage. The Queer Choir is an East Bay-based ensemble of queer and trans singers. We value singing as a collective healing and community-building practice that centers Black, Indigenous, Queer, Trans, People Of Color (BIQTPOC), and queers with disabilities. The concert program includes many songs written or sung by queer artists, and composers of color. And several of the songs are arranged by the members of the Queer Choir and the LGBTQ+ community. Be Steadwell (Pronouns: They, She, He, Be), a queer pop artist and composer from Washington DC, will open our show. Be composes songs on stage using looping, vocal layering and beat boxing. They will collaborate with the Queer Choir on a song during the program.

Biographie de Be Steadwell
Be Steadwell (they, she, he, Be) is a queer pop composer and storyteller from Washington DC. Be composes songs on stage using looping, vocal layering and beat boxing. Be's original music features earnest lyricism, and affirming queer content. Be's goal as a musician is to make other black girlies, introverts and weirdos feel seen and loved.
Be earned a BA in Black Studies from Oberlin College and an MFA in film from Howard University in 2014. Be's thesis film Vow of Silence screened in film festivals around the world, including Black Star, HBO's OutFest, The Schomburg Center and Inside Out Toronto.
In 2019, Be composed the music for The Alvin Ailey Dance Company's production of "the gone". Later that year, Be wrote and directed A Letter to My Ex, the musical. A Letter to My Ex imagines a queer black woman's experience of healing after a breakup. In 2021 Be released their latest album- Succulent.
In 2023, Be joined the cast of Parable of the Sower the Opera by Toshi Reagon and Dr Bernice Johnson Reagon.
This spring, Be will release their album, Dear Ex: the Musical. Be currently works as a professor at Howard University.
