Colston Hall to host Kraftwerk tribute

By Laura Williams  Monday Oct 20, 2014

As part of its exciting new programme of multimedia content, Bristol’s Colston Hall is hosting a special Radioland: Kraftwerk’s Radioactivity 40 Years On show.

The show, which is at Colston Hall on 21 March 2015, is a powerful audio visual tribute to the German band’s incredible, seminal 1975 album Radioactivity.

Marking its 40th anniversary, keyboard virtuoso Matthew Bourne with Franck Vigroux on electonics and installation artist, Antoine Schmitt, explore Kraftwerk’s seminal 1975 album, Radioactivity as a live performance experience. Following their own personal paths through this incredible work, Bourne, Vigroux and Schmidt will turn Radioactivity inside out, exploring this groundbreaking album in their own inimitable way.
