FIRST SHOW

**6:30pm doors**

**7pm show start**

Alongside the release of debut album Blind at The Age of Four, Gaunt presents a live spatial audio show performed in complete darkness using ICA’s newly installed d&b Soundscape system.

The event’s darkened setting reflects Jack Warne aka Gaunt’s experience with a rare eye condition, Thiel-Behnke Corneal Dystrophy (TBCD). "I'll wake up in the middle of the night, and if I open my eyes too quickly, I can rip the cells, they tear off, and I’ll go blind,” he explains of the hereditary dystrophy he's experienced since he was a child. The condition led to a young Gaunt spending weeks at a time in bed, in complete darkness, and ultimately first connecting to music with his late-father — a key figure throughout the album, who also suffered from TBCD.

The show will be mixed live by Loss\_.\_Gain, a leading spatial audio company that has been pushing the boundaries in this space with artists such as Hannah Peel, Jarvis Cocker, Anna Meredith, Duval Timothy, Gruff Rhys, Gazelle Twin, Lump, Oliver Coates, Sigur Rós, John Foxx, Rival Consoles, Jonsi & Alex, Luke Abbott, and Cosmo Sheldrake.
