An award-winning vocalist, sound and performance artist will play an intimate concert at Full of Noises in Barrow Park this month.
Lou Barnell is a winner of the Oram Award, a prestigious accolade bestowed on women who are innovators in the fields of music, sound and related technologies.
On on Saturday September 13, the audience can expect an immersive musical performance as Lou brings her human/cyborg storyteller GINKO character to Barrow Park. The performance will be part-story, part-rave, part-embodied listening meditation.
Also on the bill is up-and-coming Cumbrian artist Amy Clark.
Amy is a performance maker, arts producer, and facilitator originally from Cumbria and currently based in Glasgow.
She creates work that is experimental in both form and content, and sits across the disciplines of contemporary performance, experimental theatre and choreography.
Amy brings float float float away – the beginnings of an immersive experimental solo performance.
Originally commissioned and supported by The Knotted Project, this work-in-progress piece was performed at Forge Festival 2025, and has since toured in and around Cumbria.
Tickets just £5 from www.fonfestival.org
Since 2009, Full of Noises (FON) has championed new music and sound art. Starting life as a biennial experimental sound and music festival, its first concert was in the former canteen building of Barrow’s former shipyard, now a submarine plant.
It now puts on a year-round programme of concerts, workshops, events, films and family activities from its Piel View House venue in Barrow Park.
