about
High above the celestial horizon, a melodic tempest is brewing. It’s as saintly as it is sinful. As sensorial as it is paranormal. It’s miraculous, even.


On July 24th, Jazz Doof luminaries Moor Music and their friends at Electric Lady will be taking over the Collingwood Town Hall as part of Yarra City Council’s Leaps and Bounds Festival.


Showcasing the holy vanguards of Melbourne’s instrumental dance music scene, IN CLOUDS will feature a biblical assemblage of the city’s highest-flying live-music angels, providing for a good old fashioned Saturday sermon of sacrilegious boogaloo.


From afro-beat and progressive disco to nu jazz and future soul, a divine procession of punk jazz pioneers have been summoned to the altar to preach their symphonic scripture for one night only.


Enhanced by audio-visual installations and live art performances throughout the evening, IN CLOUDS will take you as close as it gets to the un-holiest of holy places. Because it ain't depravity if it’s defying gravity. See you on the other side.
