If you seek the wild, weird, and wonderful...

…You can stop your search. Meet Supercoolwicked, an interdisciplinary artist and teacher with a focus on freedom for her self and the world as a whole. Originating from Detroit’s west side, a place rich in community, she utilizes the power of the collective in her work by tapping into the various roots that have nourished her growth. Those roots? Well they are vast and range from the likes of Parliament Funkadelic, to classic rockers, to cool jazz, then true R&B, variety shows (shouts out to Carol Burnette and The Muppets), Broadway, and gospel, making a final stop at contemporary icons like Beyoncé, Solange, Mariah Carey, Janelle Monae, and Stevie Wonder (her favorite ever). All of these elements have been wonderfully mixed into the bubbly, vibrant, vocally driven, funky, and free concoction that is Supercoolwicked’s music.

After completing courses at Syracuse University’s BFA Musical Theater program, she returned to Detroit and began her career as a singer/songwriter and sometimes producer, but also finds joy as an actor, dancer, and teaching artist. Her complex and layered identities have manifested into various forms of the arts in diverse spaces ranging from opening up for Jack White at the Detroit Bernie Sanders rally, being featured in the documentary “Showing Up Showing Out” produced in conjunction with Dazed, Carhartt WIP, and Motown, to the original play, “Cleopatra Boy”, presented by the theater troupe A Host of People. This summer, she performed her newest immersive meditation-performance, “Heaven Can Be Here (even if it’s just for a second)” at the 7th Annual Sidewalk Festival and is a proud Artist in Residence at Poetic Societies and Assemble Sound.

Supercoolwicked is ecstatic about the release of her first EP, “High Gloss”, and seeks to continue to produce quality art that soothes, grooves, and moves the masses.
