iVisit.... Dillon

  • LSO St Luke's 161 Old Street London, EC1V 9NG United Kingdom (map)

Brazilian-born, Cologne-bred and Berlin-based singer-songwriter and pianist Dominique Dillon de Byington, aka Dillon, makes her Barbican programme debut at LSO St Luke’s this autumn. The artist, who bridges pop, art song and electronica, presents material from her latest choral project (and forthcoming release of the same title) This Silence Kills The Unknown for which she will be joined by Hackney-based amateur women’s choir Deep Throat Choir.

Dillon released her debut album This Silence Kills in 2011, followed by her second album The Unknown in 2014 on German electronic music label BPitch Control to great critical acclaim. The two albums are linked and tell a coherent story, which continues with her recently released third album This Silence Kills The Unknown, a live album of a theatrical concert with a 16-strong women’s choir that Dillon had devised for the Berlin Festival’s Foreign Affairs strand in summer 2015. Dillon said: ‘This Silence Kills and The Unknown have always been one to me and the new album physically brings them together in a way that, until now, has only been possible live.’
