Scarlet Monk’s music is a prism of experiences, cultures and genres. She attributes her style to the years she spent honing her craft in Chicago, where she performed and recorded in the underground hip hop and downtempo scenes, honed her improvisational skills in theatre and with the Laboratory Dancers experimental dance company, and developed her ear for harmony and vocal layers in several choirs. As a classically trained vocalist who delved into the electronic music world, she is endlessly passionate about the place of the human voice within current technology, and has mastered creating multi-layered vocal harmonies so that they blend seamlessly with electronic beats. A vocalist, songwriter, producer, performance artist and dancer, Scarlet Monk is a power house with her finger on the pulse of society.
