Jeunae Elita Rogers

Jeunae Elita Rogers is a vocalist, and multidisciplinary artist-scholar with a practice that intersects music, deep ecology, more-than-human entanglements, and esotericism. Jeunae is a queerer of musical boundaries and will ease-fully dip between Hildegard-esque melodies, jazz, soul, folk and various world music traditions. Exploring voice as a vital technology, before and beyond words, and through the use of live affected vocals through a range of electronics and pedals, Jeunae invites audiences into a world of liminality and feeling. As a passionate voice and music educator, facilitator, and choir leader, Jeunae champions an understanding that all humans are inherently musical, and that singing and music, until quite recently, has always been at the centre of all cultural and social life.Her masters of creative arts research investigates voice as a means of cultivating an ethics of care for the more-than-human through listening-with and vocalising-back with the world. Jeunae has performed nationally and internationally across concert stages, art festivals, and residencies.
