Planting seeds of harmony

Created by Sound is a co-creation community rooted in collaboration, creativity, and gathering.

Rooted in sound. Gathered in community.
We create to remember. We listen to become.

Some music asks you to escape. Nessi Gomes asks you to arrive.

Born on the island of Guernsey, shaped by British and Portuguese roots, Nessi has spent her life learning how to belong to herself. That journey lives in every song — the ache, the tender courage, the refusal to look away from what's real.

Her debut album Diamonds & Demons introduced her to the world. Since then she has moved through rooms of every size, always choosing presence over performance, truth over pretence. Now she's here — for the first time in California — bringing that same quiet intensity to the cXs community.

She is currently writing her second album. Leaning deeper into shadow. Deeper into tenderness. The kind of music that doesn't shine a light to make darkness disappear — it makes space for darkness to breathe.

This is what we built cXs for. Moments like this one.

Welcome Nessi Gomes.

VENUE

THE MOON CAVE @ Butterfly Mountain, Topanga

Tucked beneath a canopy of ancient oak trees, the Moon Cave is a one-of-a-kind earthen sanctuary where art, nature and gathering meet. This stage is a hand-carved and sculpted mud creation by Rebecca Gilling and friends, as part of an immersive workshop project here at Butterfly Mountain. Framed by sprawling oak branches overhead and surrounded by natural stone terraces, the space feels like a hidden woodland temple.

The Moon Cave's unique amphitheater layout creates an intimate yet expansive atmosphere, making it ideal for concerts, ceremonies, talks, weddings, and community gatherings. As sunlight filters through the trees and dances across the handcrafted details, the space comes alive with a sense of wonder, inviting guests to slow down, listen deeply, and gather in harmony with the land.

Let’s plant seeds together for a future filled with music, joy, and creative connection.
