From the Lips to the Moon MADDALENA GHEZZI, MARIA CHIARA ARGIRÒ, RUTH GOLLER, POUYA EHSAEI, TARA FATEHI

Voice collides with soundscapes, disordered text, misbehaving beats, spontaneous expressions and micro-stories, inviting audiences into a world of dark fantasy, fierce deliveries and a hypnotic sonic journey.

From the Lips to the Moon is an unruly post-disciplinary performance fusing multi-genres of music, words, poetry, and movement created by Pouya Ehsaei (live electronics) and Tara Fatehi (poetry/performance). In this edition, they are joined by the trio of singer and composer Maddalena Ghezzi, pianist and synth player Maria Chiara Argirò, and vocalist and bass player Ruth Goller on the occasion of the release of their new live album. Together they explore how the collaborative music of the trio can blend into the work of From the Lips to the Moon to create new sonic worlds.

From the Lips to the Moon blends live and electronic music, touching on jazz, ambient punk, dub, with spoken word, and performance into an unruly, multi-sensory experience. It is a space for unexpected encounters, radical openness, and endless playfulness – an “ecstatic embrace of dissonance” (Nero Editions).

Since 2022, From the Lips to the Moon has become a driving force in London’s experimental performance scene, with past shows at Southbank Centre, Latitude, V&A, Cafe OTO, 180 Studios, Sophiensaele, Teatro Lucido, NTS and Soho Radio among others. Their self-titled album was released on Akazib Records (2026). Lipstomoon press has released two publications In times of darkness and Noise Complaint. www.lipstomoon.com // @lipstomoon
