John Foxx plays live at Roundhouse electronica festival Short Circuit
John Foxx will perform a unique analogue synthesizer show to mark his 30th anniversary as a solo artist. He and a one-off group of special guests will assemble on stage for the first time with the machines used on his 1980 debut solo album, Metamatic – the Moogs, ARPs and drum machines that created the sound of the future – to perform material from Metamatic and a selection of early Ultravox music. Also former Ultravox guitarist Robin Simon has been confirmed as special guest to perform on a selection of material including songs from the band’s pioneering 1978 album, Systems of Romance.
The set will also include brand new material created in collaboration with Paul Daley from Leftfield, along with new songs by John Foxx & The Maths – an all-analogue synthesizer project with London-based artist Benge.
