Overview

An evening of songs and conversation with Ed O'Brien, guitarist and singer from Oxford, presented at the Barbican Hall in the City of London.

Ed O'Brien is an English rock singer and guitarist from Oxford, born in 1968. Active since 1985 across electronica, alternative rock and indie rock, he is signed to XL Recordings. His debut solo album, "Earth", was released in 2020, and this evening brings his solo work to the stage.

The programme is presented as an evening with the artist, so the focus rests on his own songs and the material from "Earth" rather than on a band. The format is concert-style, with the artist performing alone on stage.

Barbican Hall is a concert venue at Silk Street in the City of London, EC2Y 8DS. It suits listeners who follow indie and alternative rock and who want to hear a songwriter's solo material in a dedicated concert hall.
