ATOM ENSEMBLE: ERIKA OBA • ROOPA MAHADEVAN • Chris Trinidad • KEVIN AMOS

Hailed as a veritable supergroup, ATOM Ensemble is an exciting new project featuring some of the busiest jazz and crossover musicians on the Bay Area scene. Formed in 2025 over a series of residencies produced by Wyldflowr Arts/Rootstock Arts in Oakland, Vocalist Roopa Mahadevan, pianist and flautist Erika Oba, bassist Chris Trinidad, and drummer Kevin Amos integrate their multifaceted musical and cultural heritages to create a new diasporic sound that is uniquely Bay Area. Their multilingual repertoire features original music drawing on experimental jazz, Indian Carnatic traditions, Japanese folk music, Gregorian Chant, Original Pilipino Music (OPM) and more.
