Wada studied composition at CalArts with James Tenney and for many years performed alongside his father, composer and artist Yoshi Wada. He has presented his music internationally and collaborated with a range of artists including Charles Curtis, Simone Forti, and Julia Holter. Wada founded and runs the label Saltern. His most recent album Nue was released by RVNG Intl. In Spring 2023, Wada will be the Deutsche Bank Fellow in Music Composition at the American Academy in Berlin.

Holter is known for exploring melody within free song structures, atmosphere, and the impulses of the voice. Her interest in sonic mysteries has led her to record in various settings – in her home, outside with a field recorder, and in recording studios – as well as to perform live, often with a focus on the voice and the space between language and babble.
