S Mark Gubb

From a Prince to a Cross-dressing Wrestler: A Punk Rock Odyssey in Florida

Join Cardiff-based artist and musician, S Mark Gubb, as he takes us on a musical and historical journey through Pensacola, Florida, and its connections with Wales – from an ancient Prince to a cross-dressing wrestler.

This summer, Mark was artist-in-residence with The 309 Punk Project in Pensacola. Whilst there, he wrote and recorded an EP of songs with local musicians, breathing new life and visibility into the connections he uncovered.

The 309 Punk Project is an organisation based in the one of the longest-surviving punk houses in the southern American States, having been home to a revolving door of musicians, artists, activists, and gigs, for over 30 years.

In this one-off sharing event and listening party, Mark will talk about his time in Pensacola, the bizarre range of Welsh connections to the city, and play the songs from the EP he recorded whilst there, recently released across all digital streaming platforms by THURST Records.

(Mark’s residency in Pensacola was made possible by an International Opportunities Grant from Wales Arts International.)

This event is sponsored by Cardiff Music City festival

ACCESSIBLE VENUE

Mewn sgwrs gyda S Mark Gubb

O Dywysog i Reslwr Croeswisgo: Odyssey Punk Rock yn Fflorida

Ymunwch â’r artist a’r cerddor o Gaerdydd, S Mark Gubb, wrth iddo fynd â ni ar daith gerddorol a hanesyddol drwy Bensacola, Fflorida, a’i chysylltiadau â Chymru – o Dywysog hynafol i reslwr croeswisgo.

Yr haf hwn, roedd Mark yn artist preswyl gyda The 309 Punk Project ym Mhensacola. Tra yno, ysgrifennodd a recordiodd EP o ganeuon gyda cherddorion lleol, gan roi bywyd newydd ac amlygrwydd i’r cysylltiadau a ddatgelodd.

Mae The 309 Punk Project yn sefydliad sydd wedi’i leoli yn un o’r tai pync sydd wedi goroesi hiraf yn nhaleithiau’r de yr UDA, ar ôl bod yn gartref i ddrws troi o gerddorion, artistiaid, actifyddion a gigs ers dros 30 mlynedd.

Yn y digwyddiad rhannu a pharti gwrando untro hwn, bydd Mark yn siarad am ei amser ym Mhensacola, yr amrywiaeth rhyfedd o gysylltiadau Cymreig â’r ddinas, ac yn chwarae’r caneuon o’r EP a recordiodd tra yno, a ryddhawyd yn ddiweddar ar draws yr holl lwyfannau ffrydio digidol gan Cofnodion THURST.

(Gwnaed preswyliad Mark ym Mhensacola yn bosibl diolch i Grant Cyfleoedd Rhyngwladol gan Gelfyddydau Rhyngwladol Cymru.)

Noddir y digwyddiad hwn gan ŵyl Dinas Gerdd Caerdydd

Sonic Alchemy - Nothing Marginalised About it Babes // Dim Byd Ymylol Amdani Babes

Navigating a constant and demanding industry can require a lot of everyone, especially those who have to cross even more barriers than others. These sessions will give you space to create, think, and connect with others in the industry. A different way of networking is discussing the industry together and slowing down the pace. 

If you know of an organisation that works with marginalised genders in the music industry here in Wales, or if you yourself identify as a woman or marginalised gender who is a part of the industry - we want to meet you! From musicians to managers, assistants to funders, sound tech to gig-goers - anyone is welcome to join.
 

FREE LUNCH

Workshops from: Resonant of Beacon's Cymru, Namywa CEO of Girl Grind UK

FREE HEADSHOTS from Siria Photography 

Finally we give the floor to you; do you have a project you need help with? Do you want a chance to discuss your music or music career with the right people in the room? This is your chance to be heard and to make some longstanding connections with others in the industry.

Pluto Reading Room Series - 'Learning Whiteness: Education and the Settler Colonial State'

Arathi Sriprakash joins us to talk about 'Learning Whiteness: Education and the Settler Colonial State'.

Learning Whiteness examines the material conditions, knowledge politics and complex feelings that create and relay systems of racial domination. Focusing on Australia, the authors demonstrate how whiteness is fundamentally an educational project – taught within education institutions and through public discourse – in active service of the settler colonial state.

This conversation is set in the backdrop of the Welsh Government Publishing it's Anti Racist Plan for 2030 and the introduction of the new Curriculum which incorporates Black History. We will be discussing the difference this is going to make and journey Wales has it set itself on.
