  • London promoter The Hydra will host Carl Craig Synthesizer Ensemble at Barbican Hall on Friday, April 6th. The show, a collaboration with pianist Francesco Tristano that's been ten years in the making, will see a team of musicians on keyboards and synths perform classic tracks from the Detroit artist's back catalogue. At the London leg, Craig will be joined onstage by US pianist Kelvin Sholar. Later in the year, the group will travel to Germany, France and Belgium, though exact dates and venues are still TBA. A version of the show, titled Carl Craig presents Versus Synthesizer Ensemble, featured as part of the Resident Advisor stage at Sónar 2017. Watch the performance.
