This upcoming MARN Lounge Sessions features Spider Creek, a music collective based out of Milwaukee Wisconsin consisting of roughly 30 artists ranging from musicians and producers to visual artists. Sonically, the group enjoys the term “Genre Fluid” to describe the sound created in their studio, titled “THE ATTIC”. (As it resides in the attic of the home 3 of the 4 original members live in.)

The collective’s inception took place in March of 2020. In an attempt to escape the insanity of the early stages of the pandemic the 4 original members, SAINTRÈ, Ian James, Makatà and Lizzie Kay rented a house in northern Wisconsin on a body of water called “Spider Creek”, with the intent of writing a collaboration album. At the end of the week they had finished the project and went their separate ways as artists. Over the course of the next year and a half they continued to have Spider Creek recording sessions while maintaining their solo artist status.

It wasn’t until January of 2022 that the 4 decided to focus on creating a collective. Since that time the group has invited new artists to each session adding to the complexity and eclectic nature that Spider Creek embodies. Attempting to make each lock in recording session a new and exciting experience for the artists involved. Hoping to allow them to meet and work with artists they have not in the past as well as create an environment that feels professional while still having the aura of a comfortable home. As a team, Spider Creek has released 2, 9 track albums, 3 singles and a 3 track EP since the beginning of 2022.

Since then, she has found a sound that has made an impact in the city of Milwaukee and around the world. Trinity started creating music towards the end of her eighth grade year where she started writing and producing. Singing and creating became second nature. 

She grew up around a father who was musically inclined where she quickly realized that music was something special. She remembers long nights in the studio with him, thinking that music was something she wanted to pursue. In 2016 Trinity and her dad released a song titled “Letting Go” on SoundCloud for friends and family to hear. She then started releasing her own music shortly after. 

In July of 2018, Trinity played her first show opening up for K-Stamp, another local artist. Some time after playing this show and releasing her single “Both of Us”, she began gaining some traction in the city. She soon decided to release a full length album titled “Can’t Make Up My Mind” in June of 2019. She continued to make her rounds playing shows, and was even featured on a women’s panel courtesy of Riverwest Femfest and Grace Weber’s Music Lab. 

She has since released music videos, landed interviews, made magazine appearances, and played lots more super fun shows. In 2020 Trinity released her latest album called “Exposed” where she speaks on many of her experiences and revelations throughout the years. In 2021 she went on to release a 3 track project called “Songwriter” with fellow Milwaukee and Atlanta based artist Sphinx Da God. They went on to release two videos (shot by Visionary Studios) alongside the project. This project became recognized by the youth and youth teachers of Milwaukee as this collaboration was a result of Grace Webers Music Lab. Trinity has been working hard creating and writing, taking on a new sound for a new era of music by Trinity Grace. Following her most recent release, “Never Leave Ya” in November of 2021, she has been experimenting with new sounds, instruments, and even writing styles. With an alternative pop-rock style, she is hoping to reach and impact many ears.
