Levitate upon waves of delight and heightened awareness

JOLT Arts will showcase three ecstatic and legendary in-house acts. Prepare to levitate upon audio waves of delight and heightened awareness. Mesmerising and technically bedazzling, Tarlochan Bobby Singh is Australia’s master of the tabla and Indian Classical rhythmic flows. 

In a reimagining of what it means to be avant-garde, award-winning interabilities act The Amplified Elephants with leading chamber ensemble/band BOLT Ensemble and Australia’s recalcitrant sound artist James Hullick in a night of multicultural, electric and expansive sonic offerings. 

Each act is to be presented in surround sound delivered by Michael Hewes, Australia’s leading sound diffusion engineer and artist. Hullick and the BOLT Ensemble will perform alongside projections by Japanese video master Akiko Nakayama.

This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.

Presented by JOLT Arts
