We are delighted to present Toby Hay & Aidan Thorne, who will be performing following the opening of the BEEP Painting Biennial 2022 Winners Exhibition.There will be a viewing of the exhibition from 7pm followed by performance in the bar area at 9pm.
In 2021, guitarist Toby Hay & bassist Aidan Thorne (Duski) headed to the studio to make an album of new music, the inspiration being the things they missed most due to the restrictions of the pandemic.
They focussed on improvisation and the timbre of acoustic instruments in real spaces. The yearning for the energy one can get from live performance with a fellow musician drove the project forward. They will be performing material from their new album, from previous albums, and improvising new pieces.
