SOTTOVOCE - DAY FESTIVAL OF NOISE AND MUSIC

OVERVIEW
-
SOTTO VOCE: a discrete DIY one-day festival of noise and music curated and self-produced by [no.signal]
-
'SOTTO VOCE' ('whispering', or a dual reference to a 'discrete', 'underground' voice) as an attempt to reflect the ethos and the DIY nature of the event in all senses.

2 alternating spaces: one amplified and one 'self resonating' at the state51 warehouse (aka, 'the factory') in London's East End (off Bricklane yet off the Shoreditch path).

This event will include the first UK performances of AUFGEHOBEN and TESTICLE HAZARD (Lass Marhaug and Tommi Keranen), rare London appearances by GARY SMITH and ROGER TURNER, new projects by RHODRI DAVIES, and more.
