Simon Boswell – LIVE!
Simon Boswell is a British composer, producer, and musician whose career spans more than 150 film scores. 2025 marks the 40th anniversary of his first soundtrack, Dario Argento’s Phenomena (1985). To celebrate, Boswell brings his music to the stage in an immersive live show with a powerhouse lineup of musicians.
Together, they reimagine his cult soundtracks — Santa Sangre, Hardware, Dust Devil, Shallow Grave, Demons 2, Stage Fright, Lord of Illusions and more — as explosive performances fusing rock, electronica, and cinematic score. The concerts combine his music with psychedelic visuals, re-edited film sequences, and on-screen appearances from directors such as Alejandro Jodorowsky, Richard Stanley, and Dario Argento. The result has been described as “Pink Floyd meets the Velvet Underground, conducted by Bernard Herrmann on acid.”
Songs performed include Simon’s music from:
Phenomena (Dario Argento) Hardware and Dust Devil (Richard Stanley) Santa Sangre (Alejandro Jodorowsky) Shallow Grave (Danny Boyle) Perdita Durango (Alex de la Iglesia) Lord of Illusions (Clive Barker) Demons 2 (Lamberto Bava) Stage Fright (Michele Soavi) Photographing Fairies (Nick Willing) and many others As well as Simon Boswell, the band members include Andy Waterworth, Ivan Hussey, Avvon Chambers, Theo Gordon and LG White.
