More about the concert…

Alex’s songs are designed to be catchy and easy to join in, ranging from soulful trans solidarity anthems, to rich folk soundscapes venerating sunsets to fiery a capella salsas. Easy-to-learn song parts with catchy melodies and obvious harmonies will be sent out in advance to early ticket buyers so you can practice and join in ahead of the gig to try out a kind of joyous musical seance.

Let it be a balm through the Autumn with ear worms that get you singing with friends and family to create new connections and hope!

Vee Valla, Andria Antoniou, Jodie Powell, Alessandro Gugel, Gustavo Clayton Marucci, Lawrence Williams
Special guests & choirs: Fire Choir, IWMS Queer & Trans Pop-up choir
