Marcus Whale

Marcus Whale – musician, performance artist, writer and broadcaster – precludes the ecstasy and horror of desire, the void and the divine throughout his creative work. His shows are wholly dedicated to the connection between himself and the audience consuming his craft, excavating the tension and experimentalism at the forefront of performance – often moving off the stage and into the room across club, theatre and makeshift contexts. Seminal to the Eora / Sydney scene, contributing to and uplifting the evolving creativity community is paramount to his work when he isn’t soundtracking the witching hour on fbi.radio’s Sleepless in Sydney.

His catalogue extends to his membership in cult projects Perfect Actress (California Girls, Carnations), Collabarbones and BV (DJ Plead, Cassius Select / Lavurn) and collaborated with BAYANG (tha Bushranger), Behind You, Grasps and more. A seven time Australian Music Prize nominee, Marcus has performed at the Sydney Opera House, Dark Mofo, Soft Centre, Rising Festival, The Biennale of Sydney, Sugar Mountain, Liveworks Festival to prestigious stages at Phoenix Central Park, Art Gallery of NSW, The Substation and Carriageworks.
