Experience Bryan Ferry's forthcoming collaborative album with Amelia Barratt in its entirety, in glistening spatial audio, using the venue's 360° soundsystem.


Bryan Ferry & Amelia Barratt - Loose Talk: Spatial Playback

On the day of its release, experience *Loose Talk*, the new collaborative album of music by **Bryan Ferry** with spoken texts by performance artist, writer and painter **Amelia Barratt**, in glistening 360° audio at ICA, using the venue’s spatial soundsystem.

Loose Talk signals the beginning of a new creative chapter for Bryan Ferry, blurring the lines between music, poetry and art. Fifty-three years since Roxy Music’s iconic debut album arrived like a bolt-from-the-blue, his latest project is just as startlingly unexpected. The sounds and shapes, and the spoken words they are set to, are unlike any previous Bryan Ferry album. At the same time, the mood that Loose Talk captures is rooted in Ferry’s past half-century of work.

Loose Talk marks the first time Ferry has created new music for another writer’s words. The album consists of eleven texts, composed by Amelia Barratt, creating fascinating micro-fictions, simultaneously fragmentary and self-contained.
