Fiona Soe Paing



Ralph's long been a fan of the immaculate electronica produced by Fiona Soe Paing and is delighted that she's now developed a new multi-media experience that she's taking to the Edinburgh Fringe in a series of shows in The Capital's Summerhall venue. 

She's combined her stunning live vocals and electro soundtracks with animation from New Zealand artist Zennor Alexander to create a unique and surreal live performance called Alien Lullabies - Songs From A Decaying Future, which will both surprise and delight the Fringe audiences.

She has previously worked with singer/songwriter Beth Orton and was featured in the 2014 Noise Festival Showcase curated by Brian Eno, where her work was rated as “outstanding.” Following the release of her debut EP Tower of Babel she signed with Glasgow’s Hotgem, home to Machines In Heaven





Developed with a Creative Scotland Quality Production Award, Alien Lullabies will be performed at the Fringe as part of their prestigeous Made In Scotland programme, showcasing the best in Scottish performance to international audiences and promoters.
