Villanelle in San Diego

The event Villanelle brings together two acts, Villanelle and Misfire, for a night in San Diego on Tuesday 28 July 2026. The name references the poetic form known as a villanelle, a nineteen-line structure with repeating rhymes.

Attendees can expect performances from both artists, whose music may echo the form's pastoral origins and obsession with repetition. The evening offers a chance to experience live music tied to a rich literary tradition.

Set in San Diego, the event promises an intimate atmosphere for fans of the acts and those curious about the poetic inspiration behind the name.
