Join us at Bar Laika on Wednesday, December 17 from 6pm for the twenty-third edition of Playback with Keith Fullerton Whitman.

Whitman is a composer of live electronic music based in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. While initially concerned with making records (for kranky, Planet µ, Editions Mego, PAN, Nakid, and countless others) his focus has shifted to performing, with over 500 concerts under the belt; many at the world’s most prestigious festivals (CTM, Dokumenta, FAQ, Geometry of Now, LUFF, Mutek, Présences Electroniques, Semibreve, Skaņu Mežs, Sonic Acts, Terraforma) and houses of culture (the Banff Centre, Berghain, Cafe OTO, EMPAC, Fylkingen, the Guggenheim, HEK, L'Auditori, Maison de la Radio, MASS MoCA, Paradiso, Pioneer Works, Podewil, REDCAT, Saint Vitus, Sydney Opera House, Volksbühne).

Playback is a series of informal listening events curated by Kamran Sadeghi where record labels, musicians, composers, and producers feature recordings from their catalog, and premiere album pre-releases, archives, and other rarities.
