Since appearing on to the hip-hop scene in 2008\, she has upended conventional narratives within the genre\, her fiery lyrics peppered with themes of spiritual evolution\, social injustice\, and messages of empowerment. \n\n\n\nAn ardent student of the culture\, she has crafted\, alongside legendary Atlantan producer Sol Messiah\, a fresh sound dubbed God Hop. Melding the raw energy and classical precision of the golden era of hip-hop with a lyrical ingenuity and consciousness that sets her light years ahead of her musical peers\, Sa-Roc has quickly grabbed the attention of many of hiphop’s established luminaries. \n\n\n\nSOCIAL \n\n\n\n​website |Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n\nABOUT FAY VICTOR\n\n\n\nOver a 20 year span\, Victor has released 9 albums as a leader to critical acclaim as well as seminal sideperson projects with leaders such as Anthony Braxton\, Roswell Rudd\, Nicole Mitchell\, William Parker and Marc Ribot. Victor’s most recent release as a leader is ​Wet Robots (ESP Disk\, July 2018) with her latest group\, SoundNoiseFUNK\, featuring Joe Morris (guitar)\, Sam Newsome (sop. saxophone) & Reggie Nicholson (drums).  \n\n\n\nVictor was the 2017 Herb Albert/Yaddo Fellow in Music Composition where she composed ​Faith\, The Gift ​- a piece in tribute to the life of her mother\, Faith E.S.Victor. In addition to ​Wet Robots\,​ Victor also appears on Nicole Mitchell’s M​aroon Cloud(FPERecords\, August2018) recording and Marc Ribot’s ​Songs of Resistance 1942-2018 (ANTI-records\, September 2018) featuring Victor as well as guest vocalists Tom Waits\, Steve Earle and ​Meshell Ndegeocello among others. ​Victor is a music educator and vocal specialist of the highest order\, giving clinics and workshops at home in New York City and around the world. \n\n\n\nSOCIAL \n\n\n\n​website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram \n\n\n\nABOUT MUTATIONS FOR JUSTICE\n\n\n\nMutations for Justice is a rolling diary of the Trump administration using small compositional mantras or ‘memes’. The minimalist framework is built on repetition and developed through improvisation. Chanting protest music as a mutable entity to change how we see. \n\n\n\nConception\, words & music written by Fay Victor. The culmination of Mutations For Justice will be a recording project of 45 pieces in 2020. \n\n\n\nSome of the subjects covered in Mutations for Justice pieces are on immigration\, gun violence\, Stormy Daniels\, poverty\, race\, the economy and creative license. \n\n\n\nMembers: Fay Victor voice and composer\, Jaimie Branch trumpet\, Mazz Swift violin\, Sean Conly double bass\, Michael Vatcher drums \n\n\n\nABOUT SPIRIT OF THE SUFFRAGETTESThe Spirit of the Suffragettes is an 8-week summer concert series and Women’s Resource Fair celebrating the history of these radical historical activists through an updated and more racially/economically inclusive lens. We’re presenting female and gender non-conforming musicians (predominantly women of color) alongside a resource fair highlighting the organizations and opportunities that support women and families in our extremely low-wealth neighborhood.
