Project Adorno

Contains 3 performances.

South-west London cabaret duo, active from mid-'90s onwards. Specialise in fusing poetry with electro-pop, chanson and pseudo-Cockney whimsy, although recent shows (such as Dennis Potter) have been along more ambient/multimedia lines. Frontman Praveen Adorno played the first of these gigs as a solo act.
