Natalie Chami (TALsounds) and Whitney Johnson (Matchess) perform as a duo under the name Damiana. Both artists have built their own catalogs as multi-instrumentalist improvisers and composers in the Chicago experimental music scene, exploring the intersections between ambient, electro-acoustic improv, and more legible songcraft based around their voices and their work with synths and electronics -- all filtered through their backgrounds in classical performance and education. The duo’s debut album Vines presents their first recordings after years of live sets and home recording sessions. The album strikes a balance between the realms of deliberate compositional sculpting and free-form improvisation, as Damiana’s evolving sessions of looping synth phrases and harmonized vocal lines emphasize austere beauty and meditation as much as spectral disorientation and instrumental complexity. In a vast sea of improvised, one-take electro-acoustic music, Chami and Johnson stand out as bastions of technical prowess and nuanced emotional storytelling.
