Profound Sound


https://folkestonefringe.com/festivals/profound-sound/

Profound Sound offers a truly alternative music and performance festival for East Kent. The co-curated programme brings an experimental festival to Folkestone, combining music, sound and performance, with DIY-feel workshops and installations from some of the most diverse artists and practitioners in the world today.

Profound Sound aims to create a platform for emerging and developing artists from the local area to showcase themselves, as well as hosting opportunities for collaborators to create and share new work.

Every other February, Folkestone Fringe works with locals partners and curators to bring a three-day festival to the town that reaches across traditional forms of music to the fringes of sound-art, and loaded with some of the most diverse artists, practitioners, and workshops in the world today.  Profound Sound continues to grow and build, in terms of bringing a truly alternative music offering to the South East.

Profound Sound is curated by Folkestone Fringe, Hot Salvation & other varying labels / practitioners. The festival is an opportunity for musicians and performers from all backgrounds – residents and visitors alike – to spend time together hearing, learning and trying new things.

We produce a weekend of impeccable music and a whole heap of workshops, talks, and performances during the day where you can work, play, experiment and interact alongside the artists on our programme. This is a true gem of a festival with an always incredible line-up of talent to liven up the darkest days of winter.
