projector: Wooden Elephant plays Radiohead Kid A

Experience a mesmerizing sonic journey as Wooden Elephant takes on Radiohead's iconic Kid A album live on stage. Wooden Elephant create totally acoustic versions of classic electronic-based albums, presenting them in their entirety as long-form contemporary classical compositions.

Wooden Elephant’s version of Radiohead’s Kid A owes more to Radiohead than just source material: as part of the London Contemporary Orchestra, Wooden Elephant’s composer/violist Ian Anderson worked with Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood on his contemporary string chamber music, culminating in a European tour, and playing on Radiohead’s album, A Moon Shaped Pool. These experiences went on to inspire the formation of Wooden Elephant: in the ensemble’s acoustic versions of electronic albums, Wooden Elephant use many of the ideas and techniques that Jonny explored with the LCO, along with many more that its musicians have developed themselves.
