Following the inaugural STRATA event in 2022, Phoenix Central Park will present STRATA II over three days in March. Curated by PVT’s Laurence Pike – who will also perform at the event – the lineup includes Kit Downes, Scott Gailey, The Wellspring, Delay 45, Fia Fiell, and more.
It’ll take place at the Chippendale venue from Wednesday, 29th March to Friday, 31st March. Once again, entry is completely free – but you do need to enter the ticket ballot.
Kit Downes: ‘Obsidian’
The first evening will be headlined by Downes and Pike, who’ll appear as a duo. Thursday and Friday will be led by ambient composer Scott Gailey and experimental group The Wellspring, respectively.
“Our aim with the first edition of STRATA last year was to galvanise a scene that had been diffused both by the effects of the pandemic and the systematic erosion of Sydney’s live music culture,” Pike said in a statement. “This year’s program focuses heavily on new work; featuring seven Sydney and/or world premieres or commissions, largely by a new generation of practitioners leading a creative renaissance in Sydney and further afield.”
