Overview
Hip hop goes kid friendly at Graphic Festival this year when Elefant Traks pays tribute to the whimsical spirit and imagery of Dr. Seuss.
The innovative Sydney collective and label will be maintaining their motto to make “challenging yet adventurous music”, rounding up 25 artists to turn 60 years of children’s classics into a 90-minute performance of enormous enormance drenching the Opera House Theatre in a surrealist fusion of modern sound and visual whimsy.
Among the acts are The Herd, Hermitude, Urthboy, Horrorshow, Jimblah and Unkle Ho, who will be spitting fresh new rhymes to trippy Seuss visuals projected onto a Hortonesque screen. But since this is, at its heart, a meeting, you can expect there to be a few familiar jams thrown in too.
Dr. Seuss Meets Elefant Traks is a specially commissioned show for Graphic 2012. To commemorate it Graphic will be giving away a framed limited edition artwork by Dr. Seuss, so buy two or tickets for a chance at winning.
