Horror Music Legends: One-off London concert announced

Legendary composer Simon Boswell and Claudio Simonetti’s progressive rock band Goblin join forces for a special one-off concert playing iconic horror tracks.

EartH Theatre plays host for a one-night-only concert as two masters of the horror soundtrack come together to create an evening of instrumental terror, performing tracks from such classic films as Demons, Demons 2, Suspiria, Tenebre, Dawn of the Dead, Shallow Grave, Dust Devil, Santa Sangre, Stage Fright and Lord of Illusions.

First brought together by Italian filmmaker Dario Argento in 1984 to write the score to Phenomena, BAFTA and Brit-nominated composer Simon Boswell and Claudio Simonetti’s Italian progressive rock band Goblin will be presenting a night of horror and Giallo from their celebrated careers, playing together for the first time in London.

“Claudio and I have much in common,” Simon said. “We met in Rome whilst both of us were working on Dario Argento’s ‘Phenomena’. Soon after, he scored Lamberto Bava’s first ‘Demons’ film whilst I scored ‘Demons 2’. From that moment on our paths diverged, but over the years I have liked and respected Goblin’s film music hugely. It will be fantastic to appear on the same bill and share with a London audience a varied evening of horror and Giallo tunes with full video backdrop.’

The current Goblin line-up consists of Claudio Simonetti on keyboards, Bruno Previtali on guitars, Cecilia Nappo on bass and Federico Maragoni on drums.

Presented by Born Again Concerts in arrangement with Etrurian Legion Promotion, the concert will take place at EartH Theatre, 11-17 Stoke Newington Road. London N16 8BH on Saturday 11 December 2021. Doors open at 7pm. Tickets: £32.50 advance (S.T.B.F.). Book your tickets here
