Join Marcus Vergette and his band for a special live performance of THE FARM in central Exeter.Written and led by musician and sculptor Marcus Vergette, THE FARM comprises a group of connected vocal compositions that paint a portrait of Vergette's farm in Devon, where he has lived for the past 35 years.
It is the debut release on Marcus's new record label: Nightjar Records.
THE FARM intriguingly incorporates multiple field recordings, taken from the local area, with live performance, drawing inspiration from Marcus' many years of working, observing, and trying to increase the biodiversity on his farm.
The two 45-minute sets feature sounds such as a hoverfly pupae stridulating, 15th century church bells ringing, the dawn chorus, rain, a country auction, hay being cut, and wood splitting.
This special performance will feature one of Marcus’s plaster bell exhibits featured in the accompanying Sound & Silence exhibition.
The live performance of the album will feature:
Marcus Vergette - Bass & Bandleader
Nel Hubbard, Jessica Wynn-Jones and Lucy Foat - Vocals
Jem Fatna - Percussion
Will Butterworth - Piano
Lyrics by Kate Westbrook, Ted Hughes and P. E. Mondjegou
