Tokyo’s Tenniscoats have created an expansive and evocative songbook over more than two decades. Saya and Ueno operate across a multicoloured spectrum of lush pop melody, folk psychedelia, unsteady electronics and drifting ambient songscapes. They are a beacon of inspiration in the music world, expanding the limits of the pop song. Their latest recording Zenvu Yume epitomises this restless spirit, forging new routes in their practice and in song production.

Tennicoats are joined in by Swiss producer and experimentalist Luca Forcucci, whose work speaks to his interests in dynamic electronics and diverse musical cultures. His recent albums dwell on themes of found sound, rhythm, and intersections between cultural and musical traditions.

Doors open at 6:30 pm.

Mono is our experimental-sound performance series, curated by Room40.

  • Partner:

    Presented in partnership with Chapter Music, hosts of Tenniscoats in Australia.

    Luca Forcucci is supported by Pro Helvetia

The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
