What Are We Fundraising For?

We are fundraising for a cross-cultural music camp and trip to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Over four weeks, our team will bring local Vietnamese artists, producers, and engineers into a shared studio space to exchange cultures, meals and production techniques as we co-create a collaborative album from scratch.

To bring everyone along for the ride, the whole camp and trip will be livestreamed and heavily documented, so you can tune in in December!GOAL: We’re aiming to raise $2,000 at this event! 100% of the proceeds directly support our artist team on the ground ♡

About Us

Originally sparked by Chuong after returning from a Canada Council for the Arts-funded research trip in 2025, this project has been two years in the making. Now, we are just a couple of months away from embarking on this journey of a lifetime. Joining Chuong on the ground in Ho Chi Minh City is manager Mando and producer KILLJEI!, alongside close friends and collaborators Kamino, Lake, MKS, MOC, and Vaselina.
