Mischief, Revelry and After-Party Music

Verity Sharp picks music for merrymaking, bringing the festive season to a fitting close. Expect ballads from a fictional Georgian songwriter and ecstatic Sufi dance music.

“If music be the food of love, play on…â€
William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

Verity Sharp picks music for merrymaking, bringing the festive season to a fitting close. Expect ballads from a fictional Georgian songwriter and ecstatic Sufi dance music. Falling on Twelfth Night, we’ll shrug off the shadows of the year just gone and welcome in the new with a show featuring party sounds from Algeria and mysterious songs that play tricks with the listener (including those created by the non-existent artist Nino Gvilla.)

Fomenting our desire to play will be Nuke Watch's Anti-Work piece, while Basque multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Elena Setién invites us to explore the realm of dreams in her Moonlight Reveries. And once the raving is done, a breakfast of Pancakes in Cement served up by Eloine before the cavernous dub-poetry of Iya Shillelagh regenerates our spirits.
