Presenting a solo set for Michael Cloud Duguay’s Highly Likely Festival.
3C84 is a special recording and performance project led by Charlie Glasspool and José Contreras. Established in 2007, a large ensemble of creatives and collaborators produced an epic work entitled "b" inspired by a distant musical signal from the deep reaches of space. A subsonic B flat 57 octaves below Middle C.
After being lost in space for the better part of a decade, 3C84 was invited to return to Earth to be the opening act of Artsweek 2023. After this magical and memorable and astonishing show, 3C84 resolved to record again and created "Myrtle in the Forest", this time an exploration of our relationship with nature and the environment.
For Highly Likely, the work of 3C84 is being presented by the duo that has been at the core of the project since the initial liftoff.
Charlie Petch (they/he) is a disabled & transmasculine multidisciplinary artist.

Their next poetry book “Infinite Audition”, is out in Fall 2025 with Brick Books. Petch received a Golden Beret Spoken Word Prize from the League of Canadian Poets. Their play “No one’s special at the hot dog cart” debuted in 2024 with “Theatre Passe Muraille and Public Energy”. They write plays, librettos, poems, and music and perform their work for audiences all over Turtle Island.
Naomi McCarroll-Butler
Naomi McCarroll-Butler plays woodwinds, jaw harp and homemade drone machines. She is really into noise, anarchist transgenderism, freaky old hymns and sombre bagpipe music. Her music is rooted in improvisation, mystic spirituality, free jazz, cyclical overblown flutes, trad music of the british isles and a deep love of the drone. Oscillations of maximalism and minimalism as the one fractals out and the discrete returns to the continuous. That kind of thing. From Hamilton, nurtured in Toronto's Tranzac improvised music community, she now lives in Montreal.
