Towa Bird at Lincoln Hall

Victoria Ilagan "Towa" Vergara-Bird is a British singer-songwriter and guitarist. Bird released her first single "Wild Heart" in 2023 with Interscope Records, which she signed under in 2021. She was one of two openers for the North American leg of her now-partner Reneé Rapp's Snow Hard Feelings Tour in 2023. Her debut album American Hero was released in June 2024. Her second album, Gentlemen was released in May 2026.

Carving her way through adolescence with a fierce artistic drive, Minneapolis-based musician Mother Soki discovered her passion for making music while attending college in Chicago. Immersed in everything she loves, she gravitated toward the dreamy textures of Dreampop and the sonic nostalgia of the ’90s. Drawing daily inspiration from her surroundings, she channels her creativity through classic influences: The Sundays, Imogen Heap, and Cocteau Twins. Her sound blends modern interpretations of vintage synths with heavy guitars and airy, spacious vocals. Creating contrasts that shouldn't work, but somehow do. Mother Soki makes the unexpected feel seamless.
