The band “Sequence'' and their lead singer Simona alternates between English and Spanish lyrics in her songs. Her style is a mix between Alternative, R&B, Bossa Nova, and Latin Jazz. The paintings, songs, and fashion design she creates are displays of the multi-talented disciplinary skills and the deep exploration of the body, spirit, and mind. Her Chicano culture strongly influences her artistic style, imagery, and voice. I hope whoever listens to my songs feels and visualizes a spiritual healing. Embracing all artistic forms of myself through fashion, painting, and singing.

Isabel Madley is a classically-trained actor and Vassar girl, but don't let that fool you - she's a tacky and ill-mannered vulgarian with an adolescent sense of humor. With a background in theater, film, improv, and sketch comedy, her stand-up comedy ranges from the philosophical to the puerile - skewering relationships, psychoanalyzing pop culture, and spouting the usual liberal feminist claptrap. When she's not working for the weekend, she can be found acting in local productions (most recently in Rodgers & Hammerstein's "A Grand Night for Singing") or writing and performing with Santa Fe's very own Wayward Comedy.

CoCo Caliente is from a little country town in Texas but calls Santa Fe, New Mexico, her home, as she has found her performance roots here. CoCo is a live-singing drag queen, actress, and emcee.
