Gaelynn Lea got her big break when she won NPR Music's Tiny Desk Contest in 2016. Since then, she has been captivating audiences around the world with her haunting original songs and traditional fiddle tunes, and has collaborated with Michael Stipe, The Decemberists, and even Pigface.

In 2022, Gaelynn Lea composed and recorded the original score for Macbeth on Broadway, starring Daniel Craig and Ruth Negga. Thanks to a Whippoorwill Arts Fellowship, her theatrically-inspired soundtrack came out in May 2025. She followed this up with a 10-city UK album release tour.

In this episode, Risa tells a story about an ancient Queen Mother of the sixteenth-century Kingdom of Benin, in what’s now southern Nigeria. A story about her power and the power of all Mothers in all senses of the word: all progenitors of the future. The story migrates through the lore of Idia, her two-world seeing, her medicines, her power as counsel and ancestor, to the colonial theft of the masks, to the women's uprising in Nigeria of the 70s, to the Combahee River Collective, to the more-than-human beings who haunt the mask, calling for our care, calling our liberation further, calling every body home.

The Shaman Queen Himiko was a 3rd-century ruler of a powerful federation in ancient Japan called Yamatai. She’s part of the origin story of the nation. She helped make it a place, she wove its destiny into the sun. We know she used sacred bronze mirrors to reflect and communicate with spirit, and archeologists still find them in tombs and passionately debate what it means that these mirrors are here or there, where did she actually live, who did she confer power to, what did the mirror actually do? We know she read the cracking of bones.

And look, we love the word witch, but just because we play with it doesn’t mean we are actually claiming these people would have understood themselves as witches or that the word meant the same thing to them as it does to us. We are the missing witches, we have been longing for more intersectional magic, for more layers and complicated stories so we are endlessly turning with reverence to stories of women and queer people beyond our white settler colonizer culture and we know we’ll inevitably be clunky and biased and we’re coming anyway, arms full of awe and love.
