‘You Don’t Have a Healthy Culture Without a Subculture’ : Ben Marshall, Curator of Vivid Live, on His Festival Picks
Intimate shows in a former substation and 'gale force' techno at the Opera House.
There’s a lot to process when Vivid Sydney reveals its program for the annual festival of light, music, ideas, and food. Vivid Live’s musical performances usually sell out well ahead of the festival. This year looks to be no exception, with the bill including French duo Air, American singer-songwriter Sky Ferreira, UK techno duo Underworld, and Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Devonté Hynes. Club nights featuring House of Mince, Mad Racket, and Astral People also return to Sydney Opera House, a time-honored tradition for Vivid Live. Long-serving curator of Vivid Live, Ben Marshall, joins the podcast with his festival cheat sheet.
