  • The Rose Hill 70 Rose Hill Terrace Brighton, England, BN1 4JL United Kingdom (map)

Thursday 16th November | 7pm | £8 advance tickets

Unravel Reweave brings together the sonic explorations of 3 acclaimed sound artists and composers, featuring individual live sets and collaborations from Smasher the Frogs (aka Imogen Mason of Voka Gentle), Johanna Bramli and Mara Simpson.

Johanna Bramli is a sound artist, performer and composer. She is particularly interested in exploring the gap between experimental noise and pop. She is the founder of The Larsens, an all-female noise and feedback choir that aims to explore how the female voice is responded to. Her solo work is focussed on soundscapes, manipulated vocals and heavy textures. Currently she is predominantly scoring for contemporary dance and creating sound installations.

Mara Simpson is an award-winning film composer, multi-instrumentalist, performing artist and songwriter. Her critically acclaimed work seamlessly blends electronic, acoustic and orchestral instruments, exploring her love for tape delays, analogue synths and field recordings.

She’s become known for her dynamic live show and genre-defying musical works including scores for the TV series SILO and magical-realist film Blue Hour, as well as her collaborations with Hidden Orchestra, Cerys Matthews, Poppy Ackroyd and Alexandra Hamilton-Ayres.

Smasher the frogs is the new solo project from Imogen Mason (Voka Gentle), devised during her 3 month residency at the Helene Wurlizer Foundation in New Mexico.

Set times:

7:45-8:15pm: Johanna Bramli
