As Theodore matured as a musician\, she fell in love with the alto saxophone. Since middle school\, she has played the alto sax in performances with everyone from Jon Batiste to Herbie Hancock\, won multiple awards for her solos\, and composed original music that debuted at the New\nOrleans House of Blues Music Forward Foundation. Kirsten has earned numerous awards at competitions and festivals\, starting in middle school\, when she won first place in the Louisiana District VI Honor Band\nfor three years. At age thirteen\, she was awarded “outstanding soloist” at Orlando’s Disney Music Festival and also “best soloist” at The Loyola University Jazz\nFestival. In 2017\, she was selected as a finalist for the House of Blues’s Music Forward: Bringing Down the House showcase\, where she headlined her first show.\n\nTheodore has performed and worked with many artists such as Herbie Hancock\, Jon Batiste\, Trombone Shorty\, Wendell Brunious\, Roderick Paulin\, Jessie McBride\, Clarence Johnson\, Irvin Mayfield\, Glen David Andrews\, Jeffrey “Jellybean” Alexander\, Delfeayo Marsalis\, and more. Theodore attended the Berklee College of Music Women in Jazz summer program and studied under Terri Lynne Carrington and Tia Fuller. Theodore is a graduate of the New Orleans Center For Creative Arts. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Jazz Studies at University of New Orleans and will be pursing a master’s degrees at Tulane University. While furthering her education\, she has launched a For NOLA by NOLA project with all local musicians to pay homage to the great city that created her.\nKr3wcial\n \nIn the vibrant tapestry of New Orleans’ rich musical heritage\, Kr3wcial emerges as a dynamic figure\, transcending the boundaries of traditional hip-hop. Born and raised in the heart of the Crescent City\, Kr3wcial’s music is a sonic journey through the soul of New Orleans itself. With lyrics that delve deep into the city’s intricate layers—from the gritty streets to the transcendent spirit of its people—he weaves a narrative that is both raw and poetic\, reminiscent of the city’s jazz and blues roots. Kr3wcial’s tracks\, often enlivened with the pulse of brass and the rhythm of New Orleans\, serve as a compelling commentary on the city’s multifaceted nature. Through his verses\, he explores themes of resilience\, identity\, and social consciousness. Beyond the studio\, Kr3wcial is a community advocate\, using his platform to inspire positive change. Collaborating with local nonprofits\, he harnesses the unifying power of music to uplift the very city that fuels his creativity. Kr3wcial is also an alumnus of NOMA’s Creative Assembly residency program.
