Tara Fatehi – From The Lips to the Moon

Actor, Producer, Writer

Since 2022, Tara Fatehi has been co-creating and curating From the Lips to the Moon with electronic music composer Pouya Ehsaei—a surreal, improvisational night of sound, poetry, and performance that has become a fixture in London’s experimental scene.

Part ritual, part rave, part poetic séance, From the Lips to the Moon brings together live electronics, unearthly melodies, twisted beats, fierce poetry, and half-familiar languages to create something thrillingly unique and entirely in the moment. Tara’s voice—playful, political, and unpredictable—intertwines with Pouya’s genre-blurring sonic landscapes, as they invite guest musicians and poets on stage to perform improvised sets that defy categorisation.

The show has appeared at major cultural venues including the Southbank Centre, V&A Museum, Cafe OTO, The Vinyl Factory, NTS, Soho Radio, and Radio al-Hara, and has featured over 95 guest artists to date. Their first book, In times of darkness (2024), is out now, and a debut album is on the way in 2025.

This summer, From the Lips to the Moon will bring its boundary-pushing magic to Shubbak Festival 2025 on Saturday 7 June, co-presented with Grand Junction. With a new lineup of guest artists and an audience ready for transformation, the night promises to be another unforgettable chapter in this ongoing sonic experiment.
