Shlomo<\/strong> is back! Following his sell-out tours Mouthtronica and Ministry of Mouth, the award winning looping artist and World Record Holding beatboxer returns with his brand new interactive eargasmic experience: The Human Geekbox Tour.<\/p>\n

Come on a mad beatbox journey to Planet Geek and back as Shlomo explores the art and science of geekdom, gadgets, and the music of the human voice.<\/p>\n

Since taking up beatboxing in 2002, Shlomo has won global acclaim and worked with some of the biggest names in music including Bjork, Damon Albarn, Jarvis Cocker, Martha Wainwright, Imogen Heap, The Specials, DJ Yoda and Bill Bailey.<\/p>\n

This autumn, join Shlomo as he recreates his metamorphosis from wannabe astrophysics geek to mouth music megastar, swapping telescope for microphone and trading in a family history in astrophysics to perform his amazing vocal pyrotechnics across the planet!<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s like a one-man Hollywood action film soundtrack\u201d The Times<\/p>\n

\u201cSlick theatrics and soulful vocal gymnastics\u201d Evening Standard<\/p>\n
