With their eclectic marriage of poetry and electronic soundscapes, Project Adorno are one of the more challenging acts on the London spoken-word circuit.
They have taken six shows to the Edinburgh Fringe, each one focusing on a different theme - libraries, Doctor Who, Erik Satie and the London Underground having all come up for scrutiny.
With a retro backbeatthat draws on influences as diverse as French chanson, Cockney music-hall and '80s electro-pop, their brand of beat-poetry has proven successful both at librarians' office parties and supporting the punk band Anal Beard on a UK tour. Their latest CD, Underground Overdue, is available from Openhaus Records. |
