THE ROLAND SYNTH STORY...

Roland Synth Story tourRoland has come a long way since its inception in 1972. Its synths, drum machines and effects have been used on some of the most famous records ever and have helped artists push sonic boundaries, creating new sounds and even radical new musical genres.

Taking part over three dates in November, the Roland Synth Story tour will explore this rich history through a roster of artists and experts. It’s an exciting opportunity for visitors to learn more about Roland synths, speak to three musical icons and even get their hands on some classic Roland vintage gear.

The panel of experts, including Richard Barbieri (Porcupine Tree and Japan), Graham Massey (808 State) and Jody Wisternoff (Way Out West) will all talk about their experiences creating electronic music as well as discussing their favourite Roland synths. They’ll also be on hand to answer questions and chat to visitors after the event.

Dates:

• 26 Nov. – The Roland Music Academy, Walsall College, Walsall
• 28 Nov. – The Roland Music Academy, Ealing, Hammersmith & West London College (SOLD OUT - register for standby)
• 29 Nov. – St Pauls Concert Hall, Huddersfield University, Huddersfield
