Musical lamentations, sonic justice

Sink into a heavy, heady mix of adventurous, mind-expanding music with Verity Sharp. Expect ancestral resistance, sonic solidarity and polyrhythmic skeletons.

Sink into a heavy, heady mix of adventurous, mind-expanding music with Verity Sharp.

There’s heavy lamentations from Virginia improviser Samuel Goff, who takes inspiration from a scientific textbook on psychopathy; and a message of resistance from the ancestors of Indigenous Amazonian singer and activist Djuena Tikuna. There’ll be an invitation for musical solidarity from Tuareg guitarist Mdou Moctar whose latest album conducts a funeral for justice, and calls for change.

Plus polyrhythmic skeletons and ghostly drones borne of improvisations in Stockholm from Oren Ambarchi, and music that reflects our ever-changing natural environments to mark Earth Day 2024.
