Festival of Improvised and Experimental Music + Film + Art. Bringing to you innovative Artists from across the Nation.
About this event
This is the 13th year of the annual SoundOut festival, and in 2022 we will bring to you the continuation of this incredible explorative Sound, Film and Visual Art event. This is the Improvisational and Experimental Music + Film + Arts festival, that will uplift tired ears and eyes, explore the unknown, see within the fabric of sound, unravel the threads of normative musical praxis, and question sonic hegemonies. The artists will combine, mix, cross-fertilize, and move sound mountains to inspire inquiring ears and eyes.
SoundOut 2022 sees the extraordinary Artists: Vanessa Tomlinson ( vibraphone) in the duo Clocked Out with Erik Griswold (piano); Monika Brooks (piano and accordion); Jim Denley (flute/saxophone); Sally Ann McIntyre (electronics/radio objects) in a duo with Campbell Walker (experimental film); Laura Altman (clarinet/objects); Julius Schwing (Guitar); Maria Moles (percussion/drums); Dave Brown (guitar); James Wilkison (trombone); Niki Johnson (percussion), Clara Pitt (flute); Nick Ashwood (guitar); Tony Osborne (vocals/electronics); Brian McNamara (invented electronics instr.); Charles Martin (electronics); Louise Curham (experimental film); Rhys Butler (alto sax); Richard Johnson (wind instr.); Jasmin Wing-Yin Leung (Erhu) Julia Magri (double bass); Adam Gottlieb (Guitar)+ more TBA.
Mark Cauvin (double bass) and Jody Graham (visual Artist) will be performing in a duo improvisations of sound drawings during the festival as well as running a Sound Drawing Workshop on the 28th January from 1 - 4pm @Drill Hall Gallery for those interested for a minor fee to cover costs of material $10.
Workshop Friday 17th June 1pm - 4pm (Workshop tickets here)
The 2022 group of Artists are all involved in a dialogue that is essential to the unfolding of new music structures and what it means to be human in the 21st Century. Come, see and hear the new music evolve.
We are also grateful to the friends of SoundOut, and the volunteers that help with the festival. Special gratitude goes to the Drill Hall Gallery and Staff for their consistent friendship, generosity and support.
