SKIP THE NEEDLE
Skip the Needle is a supergroup featuring bassist/vocalist Vicki Randle, guitarist/vocalists Katie Cash and Shelley Doty, and drummer/vocalist Kofy Brown, whose members bring a wealth of musical experience to the table, including Randle's nearly 20-year run as the percussionist/vocalist with Branford Marsalis' band on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and her more recent extended stint as a backing vocalist in Mavis Staples' live band. Skip the Needle delivers impressionable original tunes deeply rooted in social justice with tight harmonies, shredding guitar solos, and searing lead vocals, like "Sly Stone, Jimi Hendrix, Chrissie Hynde, and Chaka Khan" jamming together.
*****
STONI
Flaunting vicious flows and a player-like persona, STONI can hold her own with some of rap's top-tier artists. Born and raised in Oakland, the California native grew up with a passion for poetry and writing. Already making a lasting impression with her unofficial release "Kirk Franklin Freestyle" with friend Rayana Jay, Stoni is gearing up to take the Bay Area and the whole industry by storm.

DJ BITESIZE
Bitesize is a Pinay DJ from the Bay Area. Starting at 17 years old Bitesize owned a pair of turntables and a mixer, which began her -turntablism and mixing- DJ journey. Bitesize is a two-time DJ battle champion in the local Bay Area scene. She rocks numerous venues in the Bay from SF to SJ to LA and even out of state. Her sound is a mixture of new school to old school while adding flavors of all genres you can vibe and dance to with some turntablism tricks and scratches.

Local Sirens is a free, all-ages quarterly performance series that celebrates exceptional Bay Area women and gender-diverse musicians and artists. Local Sirens has presented the work of 75+ women and gender-diverse artists and reached over 7,500 attendees at local venues, including Brava, The Rickshaw Stop, Dolby, The New Parish, and more.
Local Sirens is made possible thanks in part to grants from the San Francisco Arts Commission, San Francisco Grants for the Arts, the Zellerbach Family Foundation, the Fleishhacker Foundation, and the Phyllis C. Wattis Foundation.
Thank you to Brookfield Properties, who recently completed 5M in SoMa, including The Parks at 5M, The George apartment building, 415 Natoma office building, and 447 Minna, which it donated to CAST for arts and cultural uses.
"Arts and cultural events are woven into the tapestry of 5M, and we're excited to host the Women's Audio Mission concert series," said Brookfield Properties Sr. Development Director Swathi Bonda. "Performances like Local Sirens and myriad other events involving food, fitness, dance, and more, will be an ongoing part of the all-ages programming that brings the community together at The Parks at 5M."
