This week I had an amazing conversation with Wubmama, Courtney Stillwell, who is a 25 year old talented, independent up-and-coming producer and DJ based in Seattle, WA, originally from Portland, OR. Self taught, she is making a name for herself as a heavy bass artist, but doesn’t stop there- she is talented at making many other genres such as hybrid trap, experimental, melodic bass and more- a ” jack of all trades” of EDM. She also produces hip-hop style beats for rappers and more. Her longtime love and passion for music, music events and festivals has made her at home in the music scene, and is where she got the inspiration for her one-of-a-kind name.

In her sets, she includes not only heavy bass and hybrid trap, but also uniquely incorporates influences of hip hop and rap, making her sets the perfect blend of breaking your neck and vibing out. Her fan-base and branding are known as #WUBBYGANG Only 4 years into her music career, she has played some of the filthiest lineups the United States has to offer, including Bass Canyon, Beyond Wonderland, Downlink, Big n Slim, Jessica Audiffred, Jeanie, and can’t forget her many sold out headlining shows across the country and many more.

During quarantine, she had also played an array of live streams and virtual festivals, not skipping a beat even during the shut down.

Not only has she played these shows, but she also dropped her neck-breaking debut original heavy dubstep track “Evil” in Sept of 2020 and launched her website, where she dropped her multiple lines of originally designed merch. She dropped her second original track “Mind Control” on Finland based record label “Ay Yo Trip Records” in February of 2021.
