Nicole Lavelle (b. 1987, San Francisco) is an artist, writer, and graphic designer who lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, on Coast Miwok and Karkin Ohlone land. Her visual and social practice creates conditions for participation and collective experience, while her writing engages overlapping tendrils of place, identity, and community.
From 2015–2020, she co-hosted PLACE TALKS, a lecture series at the Prelinger Library in San Francisco. She spent two years at Headlands, as a Graduate Fellow and an Affiliate Artist. She hosts an occasional call-in segment on KWMR, West Marin’s community radio station, and she serves as a volunteer archivist for the Bolinas Hearsay News. Her writing has been published in The Believer, The Point Reyes Light, and publications from Flower Press, Thick Press, Two Plum Press, Chronicle Books, and Publication Studio San Francisco.
Stephen Steinbrink (b. 1988, Arizona) is an American songwriter and visual artist. Immersing himself in the west-coast DIY community in the mid-2000s, Steinbrink developed a unique intricate fingerpicking style on guitar coupled with a distinctive vocal delivery. His personal lyrics explore absurd realms within a surreal American landscape, weaving the banal with the tender in often surprising, hyper-specific detail.
Steinbrink began releasing short run records and cassettes in 2006 followed by constant international touring. His nine critically acclaimed solo albums of experimental folk-pop have been featured by NPR, the Sunday Times of London, Pitchfork, and The Guardian. In his work as a session player and producer, he has collaborated with Boy Scouts, Dear Nora, AJJ, Girlpool, Lake, and Ever Ending Kicks. As a visual artist Steinbrink works in illustration, animation, and Stained Glass conservation, having restored architectural historic art glass in the Bay Area by Charles C. Connick, Narcissus Quagliata, and Louis Comfort Tiffany. He currently lives and works in Oakland, CA.
