Jim Denley (Eora) & Annika MosesRhys Butler (Ngambri)
...and maybe others
Tone List welcomes you to a gentle new years celebration with music, food, swimming and sunset.
One of the continent’s most esteemed improvisers, Jim Denley, is our guest for the first time since 2020. Jim works with flutes, saxophone and - since a trip to Gidge in 2019 - marri gumnuts. He's best known for his work “as weather”, musicking with the sounds and patterns of place across four decades of recorded work. He specially requested to play a duo with our very own Annika Moses, improvising with vocals and water. Two wizards in the waves.
We also welcome back Rhys Butler to Boorloo, as an interstate visitor to our Sounding Together workshop program. Rhys has a radical alto saxophone practice that explores quiet, muted and buzzing tones from preparing and modifying the instrument. He’ll play a set with his quivering tones sounding with and as the beach.
After music and a swim we’ll commandeer a BBQ up top and grill some stuff. BYO drinks, maybe something to share. We’ll bring an ice box.
RSVP via Humanitix. Free with optional donation to Tune Fork Studios and the Beirut Synthesizer Centre, an artist collective based in Lebanon supporting musicians displaced by Israeli bombings of the city.

Accessibility: This event takes place on the beach. An accessible walkway is less than 50m from parking on The Strand; the best vantage point for listening is right next to this walkway. The barbeques are also reachable via an accessible walkway, which is a 500m walk around the point on an inclined walkway with a railing, or up a steep flight of stairs next to the scout hall. The music will be acoustic, and will generally be quiet, but may have bursts of loud volume. The whole event takes place outside: it may be very hot.
Presented by Tone List, a Boorloo-based label for exploratory music operating on the sovereign lands of the Whadjuk Noongar people.
