What are synths? Where did they come from? And why are they synonymous with cats in space? Laurie’s got answers. Part live gig, part TedTalk, “original and groundbreaking” (Kryztoff) synthstar Laurie Back tells the history of the sound of the future through 7 decades of synth tunes.
“Inspired by Laurie I got my dusty synth out after the show” - Ayam, audience member
