Who we are

We want a community rooted in music encounters - more connected, healthier and creative.

We believe that everyone should be able to enjoy the social benefits of experiencing new, experimental music.

We do this by collaborating with local artists and organisations working in music, sound, theatre, film, education, games and technology.
