Marcus Leadley has been a Satellite regular since 2010. Once again he’ll be collaborating with David Rogers to curate and facilitate a programme of live performances, sound-art, interventions and installations on the beach near Keam’s Yard on June 11 2022 between 11am – 6pm. 

Artists and performers have been asked to respond to the local environment in diverse, entertaining and thought provoking ways. Expect underwater sounds, home made instruments, the music of broken things, beachcombing, hidden sounds, elemental interactions and grand gestures…

To hear the performances you’ll need to come to our gazebo on the beach. We’ll provide you with a pair of wireless headphones (to ensure great sound quality and a minimal sonic imprint on the location) and a comfortable place to relax! As always, our focus will be on local and costal themes.
