FRIDAY 27TH JUNE 2025 | 7PM | FROM £9 ADV

Blending live electronics, performative poetry, and a unique line up of local musicians and poets. Expect riveting live music, twisted beats, absurd texts, and fierce poetry. It's dreamy, dancy, deep, shallow, dark, colourful, sub, bass, .........

An electrifying long-form improvisation of music and words by live-electronic music wizard Pouya Ehsaei and voice-shifting performer-writer Tara Fatehi. Each From the Lips to the Moon performance is a unique experience with a fresh line-up of guest musicians and poets weaving together live electronics, unearthly melodies, noise, twisted beats, fierce poetry, heavy subs, and non-stories told in goosebumps and half-familiar languages.

A catalyst in London’s experimental scene and on a sell out roll for two years, From the Lips to the Moon has been at the forefront of a growing movement where music and poetry collide. Their debut Brighton performance at the Rose Hill will see Pouya and Tara joined by some of Brighton's finest musicians and poets. Full line up TBA.

From the Lips to the Moon creates an immersive space filled with fantasy, noise, experimentation, and thrown-togetherness. Since 2022, they have performed at the V&A, Southbank Centre, Cafe OTO, The Vinyl Factory, Reference Point, NTS, Soho Radio, Radio al-Hara, and internationally, and worked with over a hundred guest artists. Their debut book of poetry, music, runaway words, and echoes is called In times of darkness (2024) and they’re debut album is coming out in 2025.
