Brian Ritchie's Guide to Mona Foma 2024

Brian Ritchie's Guide to Mona Foma 2024

Author: Broadsheet February 12, 2024 Duration: 22:33

There’s a healthy chaos to Mona Foma. Like Mona (Tasmania’s Museum of Old and New Art) itself, the festival blends humour and absurdity with art from musicians and artists from around the world, stretching beyond the museum walls into Hobart and Launceston. Festival director and Violent Femmes bassist Brian Ritchie has seen Mona Foma into its 16th year, and knows to embrace the chaos and unpredictability – like letting 2024 festival headliner Queens of the Stone Age book themselves. Brian joins the podcast to chat about this year's lineup.

Every other Tuesday, Broadsheet Sydney: Around Town offers a quiet conversation with someone shaping the city's character. This isn't about headlines or trends, but the people behind the places and ideas that define daily life here. You might hear from a chef who quietly reimagined a neighborhood's dining scene, or an artist whose work changes how we see a familiar street. The discussion could just as easily turn to the craft of a local distiller or the vision of a small shop owner whose taste influences what we wear. Hosted by Broadsheet, each episode is a deliberate look at the intersections of food, art, fashion, and society, revealing how creative minds build the culture we experience. Tuning into this podcast feels like pulling up a chair at a corner table with the most interesting person in the room-the stories are specific, the impact is tangible, and the focus is always on the human element driving Sydney forward. It’s for anyone curious about the why and the who behind the city's vibrant surface.
