• Performer: Madame Gandhi (Kiran Gandhi)
  • Madame Gandhi is a vocalist, percussionist, speaker, producer, and activist. She began her career as a percussionist for M.I.A. and has since become a genre-defying musical artist. She holds a master’s degree in Music, Science, and Technology from Stanford University. Her work often addresses themes of feminism, fluidity, and freedom.
• Activity Description: Madame Gandhi will perform live, featuring music from her album Let Me Be Water (We Make Noise, May 2025). This album, co-produced and performed by Gandhi, was composed by 40 women and gender-expansive creatives. It integrates sounds of melting glaciers, recorded by Gandhi in the Arctic Circle and Antarctica, with electro-pop, trap, Afrobeat, and R&B elements. The album explores themes of nature, collective role in the environment, and personal flow and acceptance. The performance will include songs like "Let Me Be Water," "Rise!," "Take Your Time!," and "Pisces Knockout," which is inspired by her boxing experience.
• Editorial Recommendations:
  • NPR describes her as an "icon of empowerment," noting her "frenetic odes to feminism, fluidity and freedom — carried off with the assistance of an entirely female or nonbinary band — mash together fragments of electro-pop, trap, Afrobeat and R&B, carried off with endless swagger.”
