Who We Are

Welcome to Vocal Wilds — a sanctuary for the untamed, instinctual voice.

Vocal Wilds was founded by creative partners TatiAnah Thunberg and Irene Soléa Antonellis—vocal improvisers, community singers, experiential facilitators, psychotherapists and community weavers— both devoted to the wild, relational intelligence of the human voice. Together, we cultivate spaces where song arises from deep listening, presence, and play—spaces where people feel safe enough to soften, brave enough to sound, and inspired enough to co-create. Rooted in years of personal and professional practice, we tend circles where music becomes a living field of connection, creativity, and communal belonging.

​​

We collaborate with a vibrant constellation of improv artists, singers, musicians, dancers, ritualists, and creative facilitators who share a devotion to embodied voice and communal artistry. Our circles are shaped by the gifts of these collaborators who bring their own lineage of wisdom and artistry.

Each offering is co-created with the singers who join us, the artists who stand beside us, and the more-than-human world that inspires us.

The Heart of Our Practice


At Vocal Wilds, we believe the voice carries the wisdom of communion, the stories of our lineages, and the wild intelligence of the natural world. We believe singing is our birthright—an embodied, communal practice that reconnects us to ourselves and to each other. 


Here, we gather in circle to breathe, listen, express, play, and remember that singing is a practice of presence—a way of remembering ourselves back into connection.


We believe that when people gather to improvise, to sound without a script, something ancient stirs. A field opens. A place where creativity flows freely, bodies soften, and belonging is remembered.


We believe creative practice is medicine, that community is needed for  practice to flourish and that singing—raw, imperfect, spontaneous—can inspire us to reimage our wholeness.


This is the practice we’re tending: a place where voices rise not to impress, but to remember. A place where improvisation becomes a pathway home.


Whether you come seeking community, creativity, healing, or the simple joy of sounding in a room of brave hearts, this is a place to soften, to open, and to return to the wild intelligence within.

Join us in boldly reawakening the innate capacity we all carry to co-create spontaneous song.
