“Rooted: An Ecology of Gullah Geechee Memory Along the Coast” produced by the Park Institute of America and the National Parks Conservation Association

As Musicians who consider ourselves to be Kulcha Bearers, Griots, Djelis, Storytellers and Contemporary Gullah Soundscape Artists it’s deeply personal to us that we always honor the culture in our craft. Truly grateful to be a part of this amazing work.

Our music, lyrics and visuals carry living traditions and allow us to continue from the root and bear new branches.

The tangible gold woven in our artistry is Water 💧 Land 🌱Rice 🌾 Indigo 🌀Cotton ⚪️Sugarcane🎍Sweetgrass 🧺 and memories throughout timelines, portals, galaxies and those things which we do not even understand.

⭐ We're thrilled to announce that our April 24th speaker is Mahoganee (The Mahøgånëë Xperīence) ⭐

Also known as "Da Sea Island Songbird", Mahoganee is an Interdisciplinary Cultural Worker and Gullah Geechee Sound Griot, born and raised in South Carolina. Alongside her husband, Mr. Bounce Back, she has spent over 35 years crafting what they call "Indigenous Soul Music": a soulful, ancestral blend of Jazz, Funk, Blues, Hip-hop, and West African and Caribbean influence rooted in Gullah Geechee cultural memory. Together, they create "The Mahoganee Xperience" - an onstage expression where music, writing, photography, and mixed media converge as a liberatory practice. Through their nonprofit, Responsible ARTistry, Inc., Mahoganee serves as Executive Creative Director, using art to Entertain, Elevate, Enlighten and Explore – advancing Gullah Geechee culture, heritage, and land and water stewardship with local and international youth.

A Certified Teaching Artist through the SC Arts Commission, Grammy Recording Academy member, Leo Twiggs Leadership Scholar, and TEDx performer, Mahoganee has shared lineups and projects with Grammy winners and nominees including Dom Flemmons and Carolyn Malachi – most recently contributing as a Gullah/Geechee Sound Healer to the Grammy-nominated album The Auditorium Vol. 1 by Common and Pete Rock and its nominated video, "When the Sun Shines Again."
