Abigail Austin Presents: The Catalyst.
 
Abigail Austin springs forth, forged in the fire that was Austin Lucas—an artist who spent the past two decades collecting accolades from music journalists and deference from
their songwriting peers. Often described as a “songwriter’s songwriter.” They now blend their political punk ethos and unmistakable voice into the soundscapes of danceable dark wave and gothic industrial music. Prepare yourselves for an all encompassing live performance, that includes lights, projectors, onstage athleticism and the unparalleled live performances that Abigail has always been known for. Prepare yourselves - if you can - for the trans superhero and musician known as “The Catalyst.”

    Tobias is a musician, audio engineer, DJ and designer living in Portland, OR. who’s been DJing, producing and engineering music over 25 years. Tobias got his start spinning house music at Portland Raves and La Luna’s Queer Night in the 1990s, hugely inspired by the occasional performances by house music DJs from Chicago, Detroit and NY.

    He finally found his way to Chicago via a recording program at the Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences where he worked at seminal deep house label Guidance Recordings and released a label based mix CD Midnight Express vol. II in 2003. With some of his regular collaborators he formed Synesthesia, an art and anti genre based series of dance parties incorporating house music, italo disco, new wave, no wave, protohouse, goth, ebm and other underground dance music.

    Encompassing an ever expanding taste for genres, Tobias moved back to Portland in 2006, and began playing in bands playing country, garage rock, punk and synth pop. Most notably with Roselit Bone, Kassi Valazza and the Verner Pantons. He continues to DJ with records and can be most frequently found DJing at the Coffin Club.
