I Am Fya is an experimental multidisciplinary artist from Manchester, UK. With the SP404Mk2 sampler and loop station as her creative companions, she creates music from field recordings of everyday sounds. Her recent work collects sounds and visuals from her homeland, Barbados. It focuses on identity, culture, spiritual connections to land and ancestors, radical self-love, the power of chosen family, otherness, and acceptance. Known for her explosive club performances, I Am Fya debuted at Burning Man’s sister festival, Nowhere, in the Monegro Desert in 2010, and has since performed at major festivals including Glastonbury (The Sistxrhood), Shambala (The Sanqtuary) and Bestival. She has collaborated with queer-led production company, Marlborough Productions and independent artist-led venue, The Rosehill and is part of Brighton based, Afro-Futurist performance collective, Brownton Abbey. I Am Fya received Arts Council England funding in 2021 and is a board member of Outlands Network.
