HOW radio: Global Club Nights – with Devina Boughton

This afternoon, we discuss inclusivity in the Finnish music scene, based on different aspects such as identity, heritage, and orientation.

In a progressive society such as ours, are we completely caught up with our present realities in a humane and inclusive way?

Devina Boughton (they/them) is a versatile trumpet player, vocalist, composer and pedagogue hailing from rainy Portland, OR and currently based in Helsinki, Finland. Devina explores and intertwines different genres, building sound worlds that play with and cross borders between improvisation and composition.
