Growing up in an urban environment looking west to the Rocky Mountains, L.A. based vocalist, producer & DJ Fi Sullivan emerges from augmented & experimental realms, as well as her natural surroundings. The artist’s sound is layered vocals traveling a three octave range mapping subtle bass & pulsing beats - the sweet surreal inspired by the natural world.
Before moving to LA, Fi embarked on a worldwide journey from Europe & Greenland to Australia & South America in 2019 as a Thomas J. Watson Fellow exploring & performing at intersections of technology & human vocal continuity - including performances at the Nuuk Nordisk Kulturfestival in Greenland & the Australian National University in Canberra. The spectrum of microclimates & biomes Fi experienced inspired her soundscapes to grow into new spheres of dreamy biomorphism.
A TEDx MileHigh musician, Fi recently performed with San Holo & Daktyl for Coop Records’ Midnight Diner L.A. & opened for King Princess (Belly Up Aspen) and Daniel Allan (headline tour). The artist currently composes & codes experience design for the art & research lab, Chromasonic, in Venice (additionally, Fi’s vocals were used in Chromasonic x Google Installation Milan Design Week) while also coding her newest hybrid dj set in Ableton Live & Max MSP with motion controlled visuals & vocal effects.
The Denver born artist received her degree in computer science & music from Middlebury College with additional music computing studies at Goldsmiths College, UCL, Berklee College of Music, Valencia, & CCRMA, Stanford. In addition to performing in Nuuk & Canberra, Fi performed in Berlin, Dublin, & The Hague during her Watson Fellowship.
Other highlight shows include sets at Bonnaroo (Manchester, TN), Larimer Lounge (sold-out NYE headline, Denver, CO), & opening gigs for LYRAH, Phantogram, J-Worra, Forester, MEUTE, and Summer Salt. Fi is also a Sofar Sounds artist with performances for Sofar London, NYC, L.A., DC, Miami, & Denver.

videos 1 - 3: original compositions/ productions studying movement with experimental environments of sound, voice, and beauty in collaboration with director, Claire Jantzen.
videos 4, 5: 'Virga' (recorded & live performance) by Fi Sullivan, a body-immersive instrument for live performance that implements motion tracking to control generative particle system movement in large scale projection. Using wearable technology (accelerometer + MIDI ring) with code written in Max MSP (Cycling 74), I track the x, y, and z movements (also pitch bend, tilt, & roll gestures) of my left index finger in real time as I sing and perform. The particle system then breathes and grows as my hand breathes and grows with my vocalizations.
