Mission Statement
​

Xicameri Productions uplifts the voices of under-represented communities and promotes justice and equal opportunity through its thought-provoking music and dance.  Xicameri Productions supports artists across the spectrum of humanity and provides accessible performances to an audience with a wide economic and lifestyle range.

Here at Xicameri Productions, it is of the utmost importance that the work of all artists is valued.  We do not take advantage of any artists by requesting work for zero or under-market compensation.  For artists to be valued, we must first value ourselves.  As such, we do not accept any contracts that do not offer proper compensation to our artists.

History

Xicameri (She-kah-méh-ree) Productions was originally founded as a marimba duo comprised of Stephanie Valadez and Jack Van Geem in 2017.  Since its inception their work has had a strong latin influence and often speaks on human rights issues.  In 2021, Xicameri was restructured to include dance and other musicians.  Xicameri Productions works to tell the stories of under-represented members of the latin community as well as people who have suffered at the hands of oppressive governments, particularly throughout the Americas.
