Ladies of LCD Soundsystem have partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from every ticket will go to RAINN and their work offering support to survivors through their 24/7 National Sexual Assault Hotline. www.rainn.org
Ladies of LCD Soundsystem
Ladies of LCD Soundsystem is a DJ tour with Nancy Whang and Gavin Rayna Russom. The tour is a celebration of
their work as solo artists, and an exploration of their music beyond their work with LCD Soundsystem as keyboard
player/vocalist and synthesist respectively.
As the two women in LCD Soundsystem, Nancy and Rayna have worked with and contributed to the design of
complex electronic rigs, in addition to building their portfolio outside of the band with a number of projects in diverse
media, and as solo DJs who have played internationally.
Nancy and Rayna have been dedicated to various forms of activism over their extensive creative careers, and
continue to provide a platform and visibility to marginalized voices with each stop of the tour featuring local women
and non-binary artists as support. Ladies of LCD Soundsystem will also raise money for RAINN (Rape, Abuse &
Incest National Network) via Plus 1 throughout the tour.

Gavin Rayna Russom:
Gavin Rayna Russom is a New York based multimedia artist, DJ and composer of electronic music. Using the
analog and digital synthesizer she has produced a body of extremely influential art and music over the last 15 years.
She has created work as a solo artist and in collaboration, most notably as a member of LCD Soundsystem.
In addition to recording and performing music, she also creates the visual elements for her work. Part of Rayna’s vision
is to combine academia, music and art, to transform culture through spiritual ideas, using nightlife as a medium to
connect with people’s daily lives.
Dubbed as LCD Soundsystem’s “Synth Genius” by Piotr Orlov in NPR, Rayna says “There is no done” on the
dialogue between creation and identity
Nancy Whang:
Nancy Whang is one of the most sought-after vocalists in the underground and alternative dance music scenes,
referred to “as a sort of Loleatta Holloway figure for the DFA era” by Pitchfork. The NY-based musician & DJ has
toured the world as a solo artist and with her bands LCD Soundsystem and The Juan MacLean performing at
acclaimed music festivals and clubs. Nancy is among the few who can lay claim to being a key figure in the early
days of the rise of DFA Records, and her worldwide DJ sets at various after-parties and special events remain faithful
to the post-punk party aesthetic upon which DFA was founded.
