This is our first time in Chatter's Santa Fe home at the Center for Contemporary Arts! We are excited to continue our collaboration with them up to Santa Fe!

Roomful of Teeth is a Grammy-winning vocal band dedicated to reimagining the expressive potential of the human voice. By engaging collaboratively with artists, thinkers, and community leaders from around the world, the group seeks to uplift and amplify voices old and new while creating and performing meaningful and adventurous music.

Founded in 2009 by Brad Wells, the band was incubated at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) in North Adams, Massachusetts, where members studied with some of the world's most extraordinary singers and teachers. Through experimentation, exploration, and plenty of failures, the group learned that the boundaries of the human voice are never what they seem, that rules can be bent, even broken, and perhaps they should be.

Through their unique collaborative process, Roomful of Teeth has worked with many of today's most compelling musical creators to build a significant and continuously growing repertoire. They have collaborated with a wide range of artists and ensembles spanning genres and art forms. 

As the world rapidly changes, Roomful of Teeth is cultivating deeper relationships with technology, continuing to explore and expand the artistic reach of the human voice. They are excited about new collaborative projects focused on stories of place, home, and community in diverse environments around the world. They explore, learn, and collaborate with passionate curiosity, contagious enthusiasm, and deep gratitude.

Led by artistic director and violinist/conductor David Felberg and associate artistic director and clarinetist James Shields, Chatter presents intrepid combinations of repertoire new and old, envisioning an unbroken fabric of musical culture across eras and genres. Chatter has commissioned and premiered works by composers such as Pierre Jalbert, Sarah Hennies, Roberto Sierra, and Raven Chacon. Between its multiple series, Chatter presents more than 120 concerts annually to often sold-out audiences in Albuquerque and Santa Fe while remaining organizationally nimble and artist-led. As Mark Tiarks wrote for the Santa Fe New Mexican: "By challenging almost every norm in an industry that sometimes focuses on safe repertoire and conventional marketing, Chatter has gotten ahead of the curve."
