Heaven 17 Tickets Nov 28 2010 7:00 pm iCal

Mean Fiddler is proud to announce Heaven 17’s Penthouse & Pavement 30th Anniversary UK Tour.  The critically acclaimed British electronic band will perform their seminal 1981 album of the year ‘Penthouse And Pavement’  live in its entirety.

The band, featuring original founding members Glenn Gregory (lead vocals) and Martyn Ware (synthesizers, vocals) , start their UK tour at the Edinburgh HMV Picture House on Monday 22nd November.  The special concerts follow the ultimate super-luxury edition of Penthouse & Pavement, released by EMI in the spring.

The band will also feature Billie Godfrey (backing vocals), Asa Bennett (guitar), Joel Farland (electronic percussion) and Randy Hope-Taylor (bass guitar).
 
Lighting designer Pip Rhodes will coordinate a live digital visual show featuring some of the biggest names and most talented up-and-coming artists from the worlds of digital and graphic design, fine art and film, including Chris Bird (United Visual Artists), graphic designer Malcolm Garrett, Mike Faulkner (D-Fuse), famous artist Tim Head, Ian Anderson (Designers Republic), plus many more.

The event will be curated from the moment the audience enters the venue. The LED wall will showcase the visual artists’ interpretations of BEF compositions from the same period, including tracks from the BEF albums - ‘Music For Stowaways’ and ‘Music Of Quality And Distinction Vol.1’. 

All artists have been allowed to express their interpretations freely with no prior guidance from Heaven 17 and the artists contributing to this ‘group show’ will be credited.

This will be a world-first multimedia show – part art installation and part concert – and the evening will culminate with the performance of 'Penthouse And Pavement' in its entirety.
