Monday Night Confessions: Home Is + Sofia Carey

In collaboration with Monday Night Confessions we are proud to present two cutting edge acts emerging on to the Sydney improvised music scene at the intimate Church Street Studios in Camperdown. Doors 7:30pm

9pm - Home Is

Hinano Fujisaki presents 'home is' - music written as a thank you to everyone who has made her feel at home. Featuring Jacques Emery on the bass, Bonnie Stewart on drums and voice and Lauren Tsamouras on the piano, her music weaves folkloric melodies against different soundscapes and textures, evoking nostalgic memories and feelings of warmth and safety.

8pm - Sofia Carey

Sofia Carey is a musician based in Eora / Sydney. She is inspired by many corners of the sonic world, deriving influence for her solo project from the nuances of singer/songwriter sounds, ambient music, trip-hop, dream pop, jazz, and experimental electronic music. Sofia’s vast array of influences are channelled into her eclectic sound in subtle and obvious ways. Though initially her solo project stood firmly in her singer/songwriter roots, playing acoustic sets, she is now beginning to explore the use of electronics in her live performances, integrating the more sound-scapey and experimental sounds she has always been pulled towards and enamoured by in listening and creating. Focussing on lyric and texture, Sofia hopes to lull audiences into a (somewhat sombre) meditative state through her music.

"Monday Night Confessions" is a weekly show presenting original jazz/improvised music. Run out of Church Street Studios in Camperdown, Sydney, we acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora nation, and pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging.
