JOLT FESTIVAL: CONCERT 1

Presented by JOLT Arts, Footscray Community Arts Centre, PBS 106.7FM & Beat Magazine

EMILY BENNETT

ART DAY SOUTH + DALE GORFINKEL

STRANGE JAMES

Opening the festival we present  EMILY BENNETT: a dynamic and creative voice that shoots sung text and vocalisations into new sonic domains. We welcome ART DAY SOUTH to the stage – a sonic outfit featuring people with disabilities and mentored by acclaimed sonic artist DALE GORFINKEL.

Then put on your jumpsuit and prepare yourself for the interstellar ride that is STRANGE JAMES. Strange will electrify you with his technicolour vocals and guitars. This Ziggy Stardust like sonic art persona is supported by leading percussionists Hamish Upton and Peter Neville, and Craig Harnath on electronics/processing and Ryan Monro (Cat Empire) on bass. Where the universes of indie rock and art music collide. 

Let’s. Get. Strange.
