Trishula Dance Company is a multicultural tribal fusion troupe created by a Native Rhode Islander - Kim Johnson and a Polish Immigrant - Joanna Pomykala.

Kim has a background in Belly Fusion Dance and Joanna has gained her dance training as a performer for a local Bollywood group - Dance BFF, where she met Kim. Together, they have danced on stages of PVD Fest, Water Fire, RWP Asian Lantern Spectacular, RAW, Askew, Levitt AMP and Wakefield Octoberfest.

Nathaniel Johnstone is a multi-instrumentalist singer/songwriter who sings about humanity, myth, and whimsy. His work includes the transhumanist fantasy The Mother Matrix and the playfully audacious The Dubious Hat and Other Tales of Ineffable Horror. Steampunk-Music.com praises his “technical dexterity and emotional expressiveness” as he blends inspiration from metal, jazz, punk, folk, rock, and blues from all over the world. The result is a unique, vibrant, and multicultural sound that transcends boundaries of genre or theme. Nathaniel cheekily calls himself “polybanderous”, reflected in his lengthy history performing on stage with any singer, musician, dancer, and artist who loves music and mayhem as much as he does.

SparrowHawk uses music as a path for connection and healing by drawing deep inspiration from the natural world,. As a self-taught guitarist and singer, she was influenced from an early age by acoustic folk and blues. Building on those roots, she embraces Americana and indie sounds. Her style of play combines simple chord progressions with rhythmic fingerpicking to create rich, dynamic melodies accompanied by soulful vocals. SparrowHawk's original songs use pleasurable sadness as a storytelling medium. Her music has been shaped by a sense of place from many different homes. Her songs drift across rocky coasts and mossy forests of Maine, beautiful islands of Mexico, blazing deserts of Arizona, and finally, the sandy Rhode Island beaches which have always been her home. As a musician, she started out by playing open mics, coffeehouse shows, and local events such as the Waterfire Arts Fair. After stepping away during the pandemic, SparrowHawk is returning to music by performing for the first time under this name.
