Roomful of Teeth is a GRAMMY Award-winning vocal ensemble dedicated to reimagining the expressive potential of the human voice. The ensemble’s work is built upon creative collaborations with a spirit of curiosity and fearless experimentation, creating genre-defying, imaginative repertoire that pushes the boundaries of vocal music.

On their first Australian tour in six years, Roomful of Teeth presents an a cappella program that centres around two works from their GRAMMY Award-winning album Rough Magic, Caroline Shaw’s The Isle (Melbourne/Adelaide/Perth premiere) – a mystical and fantastical ode to Shakespeare’s The Tempest – and William Brittelle’s aptly titled Psychedelics (Australian premiere).

The concert also includes Australian premieres of Leilehua Lanzilotti’s on stochastic wave behavior, sung entirely in ‘Ōlelo Hawai`i; Vesper Sparrow by Missy Mazzoli; Gabriel Kahane’s Speaking in Tongues from his Elevator Songs; and Angélica Negrón’s Math, the one which is swee‘, which represents ‘the sound of getting lost in new love’.
