Antigel Festival – Dirty Three

Booking Required

Led by Warren Ellis (violin) with Mick Turner (guitar) and Jim White (drums), Dirty Three craft expansive instrumental narratives that blend post‑rock, folk, classical and free jazz. Their music moves through intimate, quiet passages to sweeping, cathartic crescendos, built from delicate interplay and raw timbre. The trio’s return with Love Changes Everything (2024) deepens their reputation for emotive soundscapes and intense live catharsis. Their long collaborations with artists like Nick Cave, Cat Power and Bonnie “Prince” Billy underscore a singular voice in contemporary alternative music.

A darkly comic solo play about obsession and domestic chaos. When Michel finds a rare record he has long sought, he prepares a perfect hour to listen — but family, neighbours and a drip that will wreck the disc steadily intrude.

Created and performed by DeLaurentis, Pionnières! rewrites the history of electronic music through the voices of women who shaped it. Drawing on influences from Éliane Radigue to Suzanne Ciani, Delia Derbyshire and Björk, the solo performer blends live machines — notably a rare ARP 2500 — with archival material and striking visuals developed with Sony CSL. Originally created for the 50th anniversary of Printemps de Bourges and presented in collaboration with Electron Festival × Les Créatives, the work offers an immersive, reflective exploration of memory and legacy.
