Audience members will be seated at 50 turntable stations which include a set of harmonic tone vinyl, an Earthquaker Devices effects pedal, and a record player. Through subtle lighting changes in the room, the audience is cued to play along, creating dynamics and completing harmonies at key moments in the songs. No prior turntable experience necessary.
