ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE:

Atto Mul is an untrained musician and artist. Beginning in rural Zimbabwe in 1999, he has worked as a stone carver living in South Wales, South America and other African countries. For company during this solitary work he wrote songs that after returning to Bristol in 2009, have found an audience.

Of African and European origin, Atto bridges race and culture but a non-creative past and exclusion from both sides of his make up has formed an all-inclusive inspiration.

Atto performs his music for a street audience and acoustic venues where he's recognised for the unique percussive guitar style he's developed, for the depth of his lyrics and the idealistic vision that runs irrepressibly through them.

ABOUT TEDx:

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.*
