Avant Garden: Our second gig of the autumn presents a rich and varied taspestry of musical artists touching on electronic, folk, jazz and contemporary classical traditions as well as improvization.
Buckner Building
Acoustic and electronic instruments
Naomi Graham & Fritha Jenkins lead your ears to places that are not always easily located. Their music is homemade and unsettling, shifting between fragments of recognised traditional songs and disruptive contemporary interventions. They are drawn to the macabre, the melancholic, the outsider. Foregrounding a queer identity, Buckner Building takes its audience into a land of shadows, telling tales of difference and gender displacement. Violin, recorders, vocals and bagpipes are mixed up within electronic landscapes constructed from found sounds, loops and fragments of text.

Simon Lawson, Freland Green & Mario Guarnieri
Saxophones, Electronics & Drums
This fantastic trio has grown out of the London improvisational workshop “Lo-fi” which meets every month in Loughborough Junction. A group that emphasizes listening and freedom with a strong range of sounds and dynamics. Be prepared for artists who are familiar with each other and willing to let the music move them in unexpected directions.
Richard Lewis
Richard Lewis are a two-piece band based in London and Oxford. Their forthcoming EP, Live in Vienna, will be released in October. Expect voice, guitars and drums, sometimes played in time.

We put on our Gigs at the Greenhouses to let people hear brilliant music, enjoy our lovely gardens and to raise money so that the community can benefit from BPCG seven days a week.
PAY WHAT YOU CAN
We are offering a Pay What You Can Scheme for these workshops to make them accessible to everyone. We know that ticket price is a huge barrier for some, and the Pay What You Can model offers people who can afford to pay a bit more the chance to support others who can’t.
Getting to us
BPCG is in the middle of Brockwell Park, between the tennis courts and the walled gardens. Follow the signs.
If you are driving to the gig, we recommend parking your car on Dulwich Road or near Dulwich Road.
Entrance and exit from the Park should be via the Park’s Lido Gates on Dulwich Road.
The park will be dark when you leave the gig so everyone must leave in groups with torches.
