Inarma Choir are forging extraordinary new paths, with the elders successfully sharing knowledge across three generations of women who are close family members…

People's Republic of Australasia, Marrickville present Tremulant on June 10 2026. Tremulant is a unique sonic journey - and this is your chance to witness the first full line up performance.

Drummer Tina Havelock Stevens (The Mumps, Plug Uglies), bassist Cat Hope (Gata Negra, Super Luminum) and guitarist Lisa MacKinney (Mystic Eyes, Super Luminum) join pianist Gabriella Smart with her Electric Cristal to create thrilling music of radical beauty. Audiences will be treated to anything from spectral ambience to thunderous dissonance, but always an immersive, compelling experience of improvisation.

Cath Ellis once observed that the most knowledgeable person in an Aboriginal community is the one “knowing most songs”, the one who embraces the knowledge and wisdom of their people. Epistemology has underscored Aboriginal understanding of Country for over 60,000 years as they listen, respond to and sing its stories, comprehending the seen and unseen in equal measure; and nurturing their profound and deeply rooted understanding of the land.

The Inarma Choir continues its powerful intergenerational journey with upcoming performances at the Emerging Composers Forum in May, a Law and Culture gathering in Alice Springs in July, and ASO rehearsals in August. Artistic Director Gabriella Smart also returns to the stage with two Melbourne concerts in April alongside Cat Hope and Nylstoch.
