A pioneer of the hyperpop movement, Longyu Gao forged their path by funneling unfiltered humor and rage into frenetic, high-energy work. Through their work, Alice seeks to open portals to their past, present, and future, embarking on a nonlinear journey captured across their debut trilogy: High Dragon and Universe, Let’s Hope Heteros Fail, Learn, and Retire, and Assembling Symbols into My Own Poetry.
About the Artist - ZORA
ZORA is a dynamic 26-year-old black trans and queer artist, producer, singer, and rapper, whose sound is a fusion of soulful melodies, sharp lyricism, and genre-defying production. Drawing inspiration from icons like Beyoncé, Prince, Janet Jackson, Kendrick Lamar, and SOPHIE, ZORA crafts music that blends her classical piano training, love for opera and musical theater, and a deep-rooted passion for pop and hip hop music.
