This work steadies its sonic gaze on healing and cultivation of calm via vocal soundscapes, rhythm & improvisation. With vocal trio and chamber ensemble, songs from Meditations on the Gift of Awe :: love songs for earth & survival and others from Morley’s catalogue will speak to the tenderness of our individual journeys towards collective liberation and love. Featuring Morley with Chris Bruce, Daniel Mintseris, Jack DeBoe, Chris St. Hilaire, Levon Henry, Arun Ramamurthy, Trina Basu, Kenita Miller and Justin Hicks.

Bailen is a songwriting-forward, indie pop, folk-rock band that has captivated audiences with their musical dynamism and the three-part “blood harmony” of siblings Julia (guitar), Daniel (bass), and David (drums). The trio was raised by two freelance classical musicians in New York City who steeped them in Rock & Roll and Brahms. Their close familial bond is evident in their tight-knit musical arrangements and rich, emotive harmonies.

For Diles que no me maten, every note is a small step into the unknown. The five-piece Mexico City band have always operated on a first-thought, best-thought basis, drawing on a jam-based, krautrock philosophy to craft intricate constructions of wiry art rock spiked with bluesy balladry and poetic mysticism. While their fourth album Escrito en Agua (Writ in Water) is their most consciously crafted and accessible to date, their founding principle of slow, wide-eyed exploration is alive and well.

Hailing from just outside of Melbourne, Surprise Chef’s music is based on evoking mood; their vivid arrangements utilise time and space to build soundscapes that invite the listener into their world. The quartet’s distinct sound pulls from 70s film scores, the funkier side of jazz, and the samples that form the foundation of hip hop, creating a cinematic and soulful take on instrumental music.
