Dream Feed
January 5-31, 2026
Dream Feed is an electroacoustic song cycle by one of NYC’s most exciting theatrical bands that drops audiences into the humor, terror, beauty, and allure of an active mind within a slumbering body. A 2023 HARP commission with additional commissioning support by UTR, this psychedelic live concept album makes its world premiere in the 2026 Under the Radar Festival.
The HawtPlates | Jade Hicks, Justin Hicks, Kenita Miller-Hicks
The HawtPlates music breaks down vernacular music styles into multiple modes of vocalizing, producing their sound and songs in the spirit of the family heirloom. Their work honors lineage while reporting a universally human experience. Experimental and unique to them as a trio and family, The HawtPlates create soul music that feels rooted and lived in yet indifferent to genre.
Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriters The HawtPlates have collaborated with Meshell Ndegeocello, Abigail DeVille, Kaneza Schaal, Hilton Als, Helga Davis, Steffani Jemison, Reggie "Regg Roc" Gray and The D.R.E.A.M. Ring, National Black Theater, The Public Theater, Performance Space New York, Symphony Space and The Park Avenue Armory among many others. The HawtPlates is comprised of drama desk-nominated singer-songwriter/artist Justin Hicks, his sister, singer-songwriter Jade Hicks, and his wife Tony-nominated actor/singer Kenita Miller-Hicks.
