The Voodoo Cabaret

The Voodoo Cabaret is an ongoing musical performance project driven by the songs and theatrical presence of Gisela Tangui. Her songs reflect a singular relationship to the Orishas (deities) of the African diaspora and are written to fulfill her personal spiritual quest as well as entertain, educate and inspire. Gisela uses extensive percussion, rock instrumentation, humor, devotion and her operatic voice to connect and uplift her audience and community.

Artist Biographies

Tim Renner, co-producer
Tim Renner is a multi-instrumentalist from Portland, Oregon, where he played many styles from a young age and was eventually drawn to acoustic bass. He has performed professionally in many dialects of American popular music while maintaining a praxis which is consciously free from the imperatives of commodification. His music is articulate, gregarious, architectural, xenophilic and microscopic. Tim now focuses on using drums, bass, guitar, keyboards and a laptop to fuse West African rhythms with popular song craft.
