Welcome Mattea to the Tucson Studio Stage. Mattea (she/her) is a queer black artist based in Tucson who creates what has been described as Sonoran-Soul. She strives to grow a body of work that chips at the tyrannical empire of white supremacy with a word on a wing and a solid grip on the groove.

After the performance, Mattea & UA Presents urge you to visit Tucson Reparations and Black Lives Matter Tucson. Read about, donate to, and engage with these organizations so they can continue their essential activism in our community. Links below.

Filmed and edited by The Tucson Studio, a program of UA Presents.

Produced by UA Presents and the Tucson Botanical Gardens.
