Tom composed and performed the soundtrack to 300 friends live every night. The result was a beautifully cohesive and organic soundscape ”For 300 friends he has taken inspiration form beautifully simple melodies, industrial sounds and mathematical patterns; creating a sound scape which incorporates the classical fused with the modern.”

Book your tickets now! Friday Performance almost...
It looks like the Friday night performance has now very nearly sold out! So if you haven’t booked your ticket yet, you need to phone the Albany now on 0208 692 4446 as there may be a few left from them. There are still tickets for Wednesday and Thursday evening so if there’s a larger group of you, it’s best to book tickets for these nights. Good luck!
