Following on from sold out shows throughout the world for Spider-Man™: Into the Spider-Verse Live In Concert last year, a debut UK tour has been announced for the second chapter of the Oscar®-winning Spider-Verse saga: Spider-Man™: Across the Spider-Verse.
Spider-Man™: Across the Spider-Verse Live In Concert will see the film presented on a huge HD screen, accompanied by a range of musicians and instrumentalists performing music from the film’s score and soundtrack live to picture. This will include a full orchestra, a scratch DJ on turntables, percussion and electronic instruments.
The score for the film was created by Emmy-winning and Academy Award® and Golden Globe®-nominated composer, Daniel Pemberton, known for his work on movies such as Ferrari, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., Oceans 8, Enola Holmes, The Bad Guys and Steve Jobs. The album for Spider-Man™: Into the Spider-Verse has now been streamed 200 million times worldwide, racking up over 11 million UK streams and 75 million in the US.
Pemberton took influence for both Spider-Verse film scores from growing up amid the London rave scene in the 90s, where he regularly immersed himself in ambient and techno nights. Daniel also drew inspiration from the scratch DJ’s at The Blue Note Club in East London, where he first witnessed scratching vinyl being used in an artistic form.
This, coupled with heavy-drumming and punk guitars, gives the soundtrack its unique sound, fusing genres to make something bold and unparalleled which will be brought to life in an exhilarating style in these live concerts.
