Since the early 1970s the Los Angeles Free Music Society (LAFMS) has referred to a loose collective of experimental musicians united by an aesthetic of radicalism and playfulness. 

ALL THE INSTRUMENTS AGREE: an exhibition or a concert is a program of back-to-back live performances by local, national, and international sound artists, music collectives, art bands, and visual artists whose practices extend to the production of sound. Conceived as an exhibition in the form of a concert, the continuous program of performances spanned a range of influences, genres, and styles. ALL THE INSTRUMENTS AGREE brings together a variety of disparate approaches to underscore the unruliness, temporality, and communal nature of musical and sonic performance as an art form that is inherently at odds with the conventions of exhibition and display while remaining essential to the production and social sphere of contemporary art.
