"A true meeting of mercurial, avant-garde genius; unmissable opportunity to witness Sarahsson’s celestial and guttural experimentalism and Damsel Elysium’s otherworldly strings-fuelled soundscapes all in the fittingly lofty All Saints Church."

A
gig
on Wednesday 6th November. The event starts at 19:00.
A one off chance to hear two artists at the forefront of boundary pushing music operating at its intersection with performance art, in one of Bristol’s most beautiful spaces, All Saints Church. Inside this ornate modernist church, both artists will present their dramatic and ethereal performances, blurring the lines between the soft and the harsh for a unique and indelible evening.
Damsel Elysium
Damsel Elysium is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, experimental sound and visual artist based in London using double bass, violin and original recorded sounds to explore alternative communication and connections with space and nature. They have collaborated with Simone Rocha, Vogue x Gucci, FKA Twigs and many more.
Sarhasson
Sarahsson is a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, performance artist and DJ living and working in Bristol. Inspired as much by the natural world as she is by gore and harsh noise, Sarahsson fuses elements of classical music with metal, experimental electronics and folk. Her 2022 debut album ‘The Horgenaith’ draws on personal and cultural mythologies of femininity, transition and synaesthesia. Since this she has created music for the likes of Maldito and Acne Studios runway shows.
