Canopy New Music

Newcastle's New/Experimental music specialists

FLIPSIDE

FLIPSIDE is the first and only music 'session' for Free Improvisation musicians in the North East.


The idea is simple. Each session is hosted by an artist selected by Canopy New Music. They perform a short set in their experimental, improvised style. Then the night is opened up to a session atmosphere where anybody in the audience has the opportunity to improvise some music with that artist. So, bring an instrument and join in! Be a part of it.

Keep an eye on the site for details of the next FLIPSIDE event. Or join the mailing list for the minimal of fuss!
