The Synergy Project
Friday, 3rd February 2006
SEOne Club London Bridge, Weston Street, SE1 London UK
Once again we open our doors to welcome revellers of all ages into the communal fold, presenting a diverse and creative show for which Synergy has become so renowned.
The Synergy Project was sparked by a desire to create events that harness the power of celebration as a means to inspire a challenge to many aspects of mainstream materialist lifestyles, not least the way we live and work together as individuals and our relationship with each other, the planet, and the wider cosmos.
Firstly, however, apologies to everyone who was made to wait considerably during the beginning of the night. We work as hard as we can to speed up the queues and once again we will make some improvements for the next event!
Once inside we would hope you will agree that all rooms work a treat – each one with their very own flavour.
Below have a look at the lineups from the following rooms:

The Tribal Voices Space
Tribal Voices’ is a collective of acoustic musicians, bound by a belief in nature and community. Many of us have been inspired by the campfires of the Twyford Down, M11, Solsbury Hill, Newbury, Fairmile and many other road protest camps of the mid 1990s, coming together as one people to fight against the destruction of our common heritage. Our sacred sites, hallowed hills and ancient forests are under constant threat from modern lifestyles, consumerism, “growth”, building, fast cars, new roads, pollution and destruction.
Ours is a multicultural, living tradition, not bound by mainstream views. We are a family on the frontiers of something new, a community of mutual understanding taking collective responsibility for the future. We are a bunch of dreamers who believe dreams can become manifest in a world where we are one with all things.
The Tribal Voices reunion took place in the deep blue arches of the SeOne where you could also find our usual healing area / alternative means to soothe into your night.
