LEWIS

Lewis blends avant-pop, neo-soul, and musical theatre to investigate collective care, systems of power, authentic wholeness, and radical love. Lewis is one of Molly Andrews-Hinders’ projects, a stepping into liminal space and core questioning with harmony, power, and heart. Before Lewis, Molly was composer and director of Emergence, an ensemble piece that explored our individual and collective power within dysfunctional systems. Her work has been heard in theatres throughout Cleveland and beyond – including Cleveland Public Theatre, Maelstrom Collaborative Arts, Prop Thtr (Chicago), and Near West Theatre. Through Lewis and Naked Dinner, she hopes to connect with other artists, shapeshifters, organizers, and dreamers.

On “Naked Dinner”

“The title of this album, Naked Dinner, is a wish, a vision of how we might commune with one another in our authentic wholeness. I envision a place where we gather and embrace each other wholly and holy, as we are, in this moment. A place where we don’t have to pay to be ourselves. A place that rejoices in multiplicity of expression and reverence to process. A space that honors composting and death as necessary and natural transmutation.”
