About Matthew Collings:

Tiny delicate moments of intimacy and all-consuming noise; the music of composer and sound artist Matthew Collings is textural, melodic and often sonically overwhelming.

Collings has already found considerable praise from the international community for his previous releases under the curious moniker Sketches for Albinos, releasing three full lengths albums in the US, UK and Japan.

His work has also featured in Installations at Glasgow City Halls (2011), Dundee Neon Digital Arts Festival (2010, UK), Burning Man Festival (2010, USA), Chattanooga Gallery of Contemporary Art (2010, USA), Icelandic Academy of Arts (Iceland, 2009) and Manipulate Festival (UK, 2011).

“Easily one of the most unusual nights of the year…not to be missed”
