Sunday jams
Summer to autumn 2026
Come along for the Sunday jams, self-organised sessions by artists and our community, happening in the main gallery as part of sounding towards - -.
Every Sunday between 2–4pm, El Warcha's Common Frequencies opens its doors for public takeovers. This is an invitation to self-organise your own sonic experiments and gatherings, to step up to the decks and spin the record you would like to play, to tune the room to your frequencies.
In the spirit of the jam, the room is yours to shape for two hours at a time. The equipment in the space is yours to use, and you're welcome to bring your own. Our only ask is that your takeover stays in dialogue with the wider project of sounding towards - -.
Note: all Sundays are currently fully booked.
6 September, 2-4pm
Migrants Organise x Lobna Sana
Artist
Lobna Sana and members of Migrants Organise bring the textile they've
been weaving together, across a series of workshops, into the exhibition
— a chance for the group to celebrate their work. This is a closed
session.
13 September, 2-4pm
Old Mountain Assembly
Roma musicians have shaped Bulgaria’s musical traditions for generations, moving between rhythms, melodies, genres, languages and improvisatory practices. As innovators and intermediaries, they helped create wedding music and chalga, a Bulgarian-Romani-Turkish genre forged in an aftermath of post-Ottoman Balkans. Join Old Mountain Assembly for a listening session and reading group exploring the censorship and criminalisation of Roma wedding music, assimilationist policies under state socialism and their post-socialist afterlives, and anti-Roma racism as an organising force in Bulgarian social and cultural life. RSVP required

Imperio Bamba
Imperio
Bamba take over the Sunday jam space to improvise and practice the
soundings of the House of Bamba, the literal and symbolic house where
members of the band live and where they meet to compose and rehearse.
The House of Bamba sounds like cumbia and festejo, like tumbao and salsa
— they will be embodying these sounds and sharing their ever-evolving
songs. Expect to hear some of the band's most cherished records, and to
join them in singing in a shared moment of enjoyment that aims to help
us all sustain our hopes for better and broader futures. RSVP required
27 September, 2-4pm
Radio Iso Sunday Jam

Iso(lation) started over Zoom during the pandemic; a deep listening and
music sharing group that has since grown into a loose collective of
music makers, DJs and listeners. We'll explore the installation's
instruments and archives with an open minded and relaxed approach to
collective sound making. All abilities welcome. Drop in
