NEW WEIRD BRITAIN: TALK
with John Doran

Sunday 15.10, Market Place Stage

In a recent series on BBC Radio 4, music journalist John Doran travelled across the county in search of the underground movement of musicians blossoming in the margins. There’s a new wave of underground musicians, sound artists, bands & producers creating immersive worlds for their audiences to participate in and approach that we at SUpersonic have championed from our inception. This year we have to perform; Lone Taxidermist, UKAEA, Farmer Glitch, AJA, The Seer. Doran will lead a Panel on Sunday to discuss the topic of New Weird Britain with Aja Ireland & Stephen Ives aka. Farmer Glitch. They will delve deep into the artistic practice and hopefully answer the thorny question: why is culture getting weirder?
