@venus.unattended

venus unattended is a musical duo with samea derrick and jenna youness. they blend the saxophone, electric cello, synth, and voice to channel the weirdest waveforms they can possibly come up with. much of their inspiration comes from lived experience, and they are best enjoyed live, since much of their work is improvisatory.

samea is classically + jazz-trained and has been playing cello for more than a decade. she plays cello throughout the bay area and performs as ‘dj samea,’ combining live mixing with electric cello performance for a more intense experience. she is also half of ‘venus unattended,’ a contemporary music duo with jenna youness that combines improvisation, saxaphone, synth, electric cello, and voice. she also does solo cello looping sets.
