John Callaghan's Cabaret Electro

"If you want to put your brain in the blender, have a listen - it's like if Aphex Twin wrote British music hall songs... In a good way" (Tomás Ford)

Cabaret and quirky theatrics illustrate John's electronic songs, with costumes, live electronics, surreal visuals and animations.

John's credits include releases on Warp Records and directing ingenious music videos for artists like Professor Elemental ("[John is] the closest thing to a living cartoon character... Between musician, performance artist, comedian and genius").

"How do you classify, let alone review, a show like this? Disarmingly good and definitely worth a trip out of your comfort zone. Strange, silly, sincere and sensational." ★★★★★ (Loureviews)

"[John's] creativity gives us an insight into how he views the world, and it’s not like the rest of us." (Grapevine)

"One of the most inspirational music acts we have ever experienced." ★★★★★ (Todolist)
