Theon Cross: in-the-round

d&b Soundscape live set

Luminate / Sound Unwrapped

Seeing Theon Cross live is to witness him pushing the sonic possibilities of the tuba into another dimension. Following his sold-out and utterly unique solo performance at Kings Place in 2021, we are thrilled to have Theon back, this time performing as a duo alongside guitarist Nikos Ziarkas, as they present a spatialised live show, performing in-the-round and utlilising d&b Soundscape.


As one of the key players of the London jazz scene, Theon Cross is part of a thriving network of musicians who are continually stretching and re-shaping the boundaries of the jazz genre.

Theon Cross’ 2021 album, Intra-I, found the gifted tuba player and composer creating a sound system powered by breath. The unique record is an uplifting celebration of Black music that, thanks to Cross’ pioneering approach, helped to redefine the sonic possibilities of the tuba. Reflecting his own heritage, the young virtuoso melds jazz with dub, hip-hop, soca, grime and other sounds connected to the Afro-Caribbean diaspora.

This performance will last for 1 hour, without an interval. The performance will start promptly at the advertised start time. We strongly advise arriving early. 

Date:Sun 15 Oct 2023
Start time:7.45pm (Doors: 7.15pm)
