From completed works that have been on tour, to new and emerging creations, OutFest continues to provide a platform for Queer artists to create and share their work. The 2024 festival features Main and Emerging stage pieces at The Bus Stop Theatre, an opening night Community Pot Luck with the folks at Every One Every Day, as well as the launch of a Comedy Stage at RoxyLive and a closing night Music Stage at The Carleton.
Jade Bennett (she/they): Infectious melodies, power vocals and confessional songwriting make up the musical stylings of Halifax-based artist Jade Bennett. She has been writing and performing music most of her life. Catchy hooks, sweet melodies and clever lyrics are her trademark. In her musings, you’ll find anything from haunting lullabies to vengeful pop.
Natasha Sophia (they/them): With their whimsical compositions and smart lyrics, HRM based indie folk/pop singer songwriter Natasha Sophia dissects their unsparing experiences navigating life and heartbreak through the lenses of queerness, mental illness and disability. Their rich vocals paired with ethereal choral arrangements and eclectic production creates music that will make you want to cry as much as you want to dance.
