For this episode, we were really honored to have a two-hour talk with Tribal Baroque, a duo (currently based in San Francisco, CA) consisting of Thoth and Lila Angelique.

They operate completely independently, and if you want to categorize what they do it would fall under street performing but these guys are no ordinary street performers. They call what they do "prayforming".

Using countertenor and coloratura vocals, they create moving music accompanied by theater, dance, foot-percussion, and violins.

This podcast is very special for us. These two beautiful beings are healers, and they not only exercise a fundamentally non-normative artistic practice but also have found and stick to a non-normative way of being in this world that is so exceptional and inspiring in this day and age.
