Supes Base [which stems from a culturally relevant trend of the mid-2010s when Americans were shortening words like “supes amaze”; thus, Supes Base is the super basic way of saying "super basic"], who's real name is Justina Nguyen, has been immersed in music all of her life. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, she began studying classical piano at age 5 and competed in performance + repertoire, as well as theory + composition during her childhood through young adulthood. She also picked up the oboe along the way, as well as joined percussion + drumline in school. What started out as an extracurricular skill and activity that was imposed upon her by her parents morphed into a lifelong, innate passion. In 2017 in Chicago, with the encouraging words of friends, family, and strangers, Supes Base decided to reincarnate her musical chops through the curation of the music that engrosses her, driven by the orchestration of human connection throughout a space or environment--encouraging unspoken conversation between performer and audience. She quickly realized that the music she played resonated with people from all different backgrounds with both similar and divergent tastes in music. Music has always been her genuine form of internal expression. Forming that visceral bond with other people can be so powerful; even the slightest nod, cracked smile, or foot tap from a person amplifies those intrinsic micro-moments we all live for. Music comes in all sizes and shapes, and vibestigation is her strength. It’s even more material to work with folks/entities with specific intentions and values that align with her own, namely tied to cultural and social topics to educate, support, and empower communities. She’s played at Cannes Lions Festival, Lollapalooza, + Chicago Pride Fest and currently has residencies all over NYC and Chicago, including Virgin Hotels, Equinox, and Soho House.often with la Monz, LEONG, Harp la Monz, none of them here that night

Heavy Halo is a Goth-Grunge blood-pact forged in the chaos of the NYC DIY underground. The band takes the spirit and existential angst of Alternative and Industrial and passes it through the modern prism of the digital age, refracted and made new.often with Blood Handsome, The Treasury, Ivy Oh, none of them here that night
