Upcoming Events

Sound Unseen

SAT 01.31.26 | 6PM
Red Canteen, Ojai

Ojai Music Festival and Black Barn Sessions present Sound Unseen, a unique musical experience where the visual element of the performance is removed, and the audience is enveloped in sound as the music fills the space and surrounds the listeners. Featuring a new work by Mattie Barbier, created expressly for this event and played by members of the stellar new music collective Wild Up. Creative concept by Chris Hacker and Will Thomas of Black Barn Sessions.

Sound Unseen is part of the Ojai Music Festival’s Creative Lab series. Special thanks to the City of Ojai and Arts Commission for helping fund this initiative.
