The first episode, “Glimmers and Shadows,” explores the small sparks of hope, gratitude, and transformation that light our creative paths.

Start the night with conversation and creative networking, then explore the artistic process of theatre artist Erica Withrow.
🎵 Enjoy a collaborative Songwriters’ Circle with Leah Casper, Elise Wunder, and Menyus Borocz (Menyuska)

— discover each artist’s writing style and try a bit of your own.
🎹 End the night with a full band performance by L. Casper & the LuneAtics, celebrating their first official release and sharing a peek into their creative process.

Rooted in the spirit of the historic Parisian salons of the 17th and 18th centuries—where artists and philosophers gathered to exchange ideas—The Muse Sessions revives this tradition for today’s creative community. Inspired by our contemporaries and influences Theatre Artibus and Dimensions Dance. It’s a space for dreamers, doers, and lovers of the arts to unwind, connect, and be inspired.

Featured Artists:

Erica Withrow-

Erica Withrow is a dynamic theatre professional whose work spans performance, stage management, and creative collaboration. With roots in regional nonprofit theatres, she brings a deep appreciation for ensemble storytelling and immersive performance. Her current work is inspired by the concept of “glimmers”—the small moments of joy and connection that serve as the opposite of triggers—and explores these ideas through her upcoming one-woman show in development. Erica’s artistry blends emotional insight with disciplined stagecraft, creating theatre that invites reflection, resilience, and genuine human connection.

Elise Wunder-

Elise Wunder is a Colorado born songstress blessed with a truly rare voice that distills emotion into song. She has spent years investing, studying, and crafting this instrument. It's a cannon and a paintbrush; a voice of oak and leather with a tone that’s at once comforting, dynamic, and built on a solid stone foundation with a range that listeners don’t forget.

Her songwriting and style are rich and heavy in a way that does not suggest world weariness, so much as it does wisdom and an old soul. Elise is a world traveler who is inspired by experience and culture. She has traveled to Haiti, Bahamas, Peru, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, etc., and also lived in New Orleans for two years. She steeps all of these ventures into her music. Currently based in Fort Collins, CO, with an entirely new appreciation of home and her community, Elise uses her rich experiences to take listeners on a journey. Through the passionate embrace of love and the hollow ache of solitude, she makes the bitter drink sweet by finding magic in the small moments of day to day living.

Leah Casper/ L Casper x The LuneAtics

L. Casper & the LuneAtics are gearing up to release a new series of singles—beginning December 5 with a full-band launch performance. Casper’s music fuses intricate polyrhythms, lush arpeggios, and a blend of soulful grit and avant-pop vocals reminiscent of Norah Jones meets Björk. Drawing from rock, jazz, blues, electronica, and punk, her sound is unapologetically original—raw, poetic, and rhythmically bold. Featuring multi-instrumentalists from LuneAseas, the band performs in configurations from intimate duos to lush sextets, gracing stages across Colorado from The Tabor Opera House to FoCoMx and The Mercury Café.
