2017 Lucidity Festival: Eudaimonia

Butterscotch, the retro-futuristic, voice percussionist virtuosa, is a force to be reckoned with in today’s music scene. Butterscotch has rocked stages worldwide and leaves audiences literally clamoring for more. A powerful blend of Jazz, Soul, Hip Hop, and R&B, Butterscotch's musical world is as unique as her genetic makeup. Born of mixed heritage (African American / Native American / German / English / Dutch) and a proud LGBT team player, Butterscotch's physical beauty and musical elegance are testament to her power as an artist. Butterscotch began her career in hip hop's underground beatbox battle scene, ultimately being crowned the world's first female beatbox champion in 2005. Soon thereafter, a breakthrough performance on America's Got Talent introduced her to the world when she performed her version of the jazz standard My Funny Valentine -- simultaneously singing, beatboxing and playing the piano. The exposure on national TV gained her thousands of fans and kickstarted a
prolific career that continues to this day. She has traveled the world opening and performing alongside legends such as Earth, Wind & Fire, Nile Rodgers, Sergio Mendes, Bobby McFerrin, Wyclef Jean, KRS-One, Talib Kweli, Patti Austin, Take 6, LA Philharmonic, and the WDR Big Band, to name a few.
