LSR/CITY & Gareth Emery in Houston

LSR/CITY is a live electronic-music project created by British trance producer Gareth Emery. Its performances draw on his melodic trance catalogue, including “Concrete Angel” and “Saving Light,” and are built around precisely synchronized laser programming. The project debuted at EDC Las Vegas in 2021, extending the laser-led concert format he had developed as Laserface. He later took the production across North America on the V2 and V3 tours, presenting it in theatres and arenas. An LSR/CITY show pairs his trance set with laser cues programmed track by track, a format developed with laser designer Anthony Garcia.

Gareth Emery is a British DJ and producer, born in Southampton in 1980, who makes melodic and vocal trance alongside progressive house. He is known for “Concrete Angel” featuring Christina Novelli, “Sanctuary” featuring Lucy Saunders, and the albums Northern Lights and Drive. In 2017, Laserface brought his DJ performance and Anthony Garcia’s synchronized laser design to Terminal 5 in New York. He later developed LSR/CITY as a touring audiovisual concert, and the LSR/CITY V3 tour crossed North America in 2024 using music written for the production. His festival appearances have included EDC Las Vegas and A State of Trance in Utrecht.
