AIDAN JOLLY: Music: Multimedia: Community Arts

click here for a full biography, reviews etc

I am self-taught musician and multi-media artist.

I'm inspired by people who find their voices through cultural activity: art has the power to move people through the relating of experiences as portrayed in song and stories, especially when these stories come from cultural movements associated with the world-wide struggles of ordinary people for social justice.

My songs, music and digital works are firmly rooted in the communities with which I work. I recently released my second CD, 'State Of Hysteria'. I perform regularly in venues around the North West of England and in the UK. For details of tours, performances, projects and events click here.

I am a core member of Virtual Migrants, a Manchester based Digital Arts Association. Our most recent work 'Terminal Frontiers' recently toured the UK in 2004 and 2005. 'Exhale', a DVD and audio CD based on this tour is now available. For more information see www.virtualmigrants.com.

In 2005 I visited the community of Nueva Esperanza, in El Salvador, where in collaboration with Music For Hope, I recorded local Cumbia and Andino bands.
