Imran Perretta’s Listening Party series culminates in a one-off rave in the Deadhouse, a unique space underneath the courtyard of Somerset House.
About
With contributions from Paul Purgas, Nabihah Iqbal and Kindness (Adam Bainbridge), The Listening Party series unpacks creative process and considers the sonic and visual cultures that have shaped their identities as British South-Asian artists. To close the series, Imran hosts a night in the Deadhouse with a curated line-up and exclusive DJ sets from the participating artists and invited guests.
