Jelly Cleaver uses music to create community and change. She aspires to the ideal of the artist as activist. Her work is often a meditation on the philosophical, the spiritual and the political.
Her values can be seen in how and where she makes music. As a Resident Artist at St George’s hospital in Tooting, she uses music and composing to help bring joy and relief to patients and staff. Her Jelly’s Jams improvised nights encourage an open and multi-disciplinary community for co-creation. She often plays at fundraisers and protests, including to thousands of fellow protestors at the 2022 Climate Justice demo in Trafalgar Square. On stage she sometimes encourages the audience to dream of new worlds free from oppression.
Jelly will be doing a fully improvised set with a quartet.
