Le Guess Who? Group Listening

Group Listening (c) Le Guess Who?

Group Listening is a joint project by UK-musicians Stephen Black and Paul Jones. Black and Jones met at music college before their respective paths strayed. Reconnecting years later after various endeavors, their shared love for the likes of Moondog, Artie Shaw, Arthur Russell and Brian Eno survived. The duo carefully selects some of their favorite cuts to perform, arrange and reimagine with their instruments of choice, clarinet and piano.

This event is part of the Le Guess Who? program and is only open to people with a Le Guess Who? wristband.

To Watch the War: The Moving Image Amidst the Invasion of Ukraine (2014–2023) involves a hybrid off- and online sequence of conversations and screenings around discursive and artistic interventions that reimagine the social implications of watching the war through ways that disrupt, subvert, resist the media’s incessant spectacularization of war.
