Turns Agency worked with Accidental Meetings helping them develop a new project with Nyege Nyege, the leading African experimental music institution and driving force behind the continent's most exciting releases, festival and residencies. The project included residencies in Bristol – pairing UK and African artists to create three new commissions. Project funding also covered events, live radio sessions, short films and educational workshops - all developed in consultation with partners in Bristol’s grassroots music scene. Through ACE, we managed to secure £27k for the project.
