The reason
we need humanness now more than ever.
As the chaos of the world demands our attention, PULSE is a necessary regular cleanse. The ritual of coming back into our own presence, into our own breath and bodies. It’s the unrepeatable act of human creation & expression.
With these experiences, we invite you to come out of screens, algorithms, futures and pasts, to just be with community, movement and healing.
Join us journeying into live improv. songwriting, spontaneous jam sessions, expanding the concept of sound in all directions, and the moment will realign, reground, and purify.
PULSE plays new music every event. Written live, on the spot.
