Lo Fi Arts
Audio studio making podcasts and radio for culture, heritage and purpose-led organisations
About the partnership
Lo Fi Arts is a small production studio based in Brighton, run by writer, broadcaster and producer Chris Thorpe-Tracey. It helps people and organisations make podcasts and radio programmes, from concept and recording through to editing, sound design and publishing, with a particular focus on the heritage, education, cultural and charity sectors.
Before building Lo Fi Arts, Chris spent 20 years as a singer-songwriter and recording artist, releasing ten albums and playing more than 2,000 concerts around the world as Chris T-T. Having turned to podcasts in 2016, his production clients include the Science Museum Group, Brighton & Hove Museums, the Art Fund, The Old Market and the University of Leicester, for which Chris co-produced People Change Museums and The Output. Lo Fi Arts also makes its own long-running arts review podcast, Refigure.
Always Possible and Lo Fi Arts have worked together since 2017. Chris is the producer behind almost every Always Possible podcast.
That includes The Possibility Club, our long-form interview series with people navigating change, risk and innovation, and its Practical Bravery strand. Chris also produced The Brighton Paradox, an investigative series hosted by Richard Freeman, Always Possible’s founder and CEO, exploring what Brighton & Hove really stands for, its contradictions and its potential over the coming decade. Most recently he has produced Sussex And The City, the Always Possible podcast on devolution, place and identity across Sussex.
Chris has also brought his facilitation skills to our events, hosting the “Compassionate, Creative… and Commercial?” session in the Igniter series we ran as part of the ABCD cultural recovery programme in 2022.
