Yes, completely. Both for the audience and the musicians. A sleep mask is included with your ticket for full immersion.

A secret mix crossing ambient, Scandi, nu-folk, indie & a little experimental. It’s not classical music or jazz, though tiny elements may feature. The best way to describe it is how it feels - profound, raw, cathartic & at times ethereal.

There’s a tiny bit of amplified sound as you arrive, and for a couple of moments during the show. But other than that, it is completely acoustic. And it’s definitely not a band. There are c.25 voices and c.25 instruments… and they’re all playing live, around you.

A secret ensemble of multi-instrumentalists & singers. You’ll meet them at the end.

It couldn’t be further from it. Around 30 musicians are going to be performing live… around, past & through you… and they’re also in total darkness, just like the audience. It’s an extraordinary way of experiencing live music.

Not at all. This is about deep listening – not scare tactics or theatrics.
