Pivot Fest - Performance by Robyn Rocket

Robyn Rocket performs live with her band, creating an improvised and playful music set using space trumpet, a trumpet played through guitar pedals and loopers. The performance is made in the moment, valuing connection, experimentation, and joy over perfection.

You can also enjoy a short performance from artist Isaac Palm, who'll be bringing his own brand of electronic pop to the event. A singer/songwriter and drummer, he’s recently gone solo after being part of funk/soul band Too Hot For Candy. Expect original beats and feel good songs which will make you want to dance!
