Steven Severin
Tonight co-founder of Siouxsie and the Banshees Steven Severin will present his live soundtrack performance to Jean Cocteau’s 1930 movie classic Le Sang d'un Poete (55 mins) plus a live score for the new short film Maloja (6 mins) by Mademoiselle L. A key member of the infamous "Bromley contingent" which helped to redefine fashion and culture in Seventies England, Steven Severin formed Siouxsie and the Banshees in 1976 together with Siouxsie Sioux. Steven was featured on all 16 albums and 30 singles as co-lyricist and songwriter during their two decades long career. During their reign, Siouxsie and the Banshees established themselves as one of the foremost alternative artists and the only survivors of the London punk scene to evolve, innovate and succeed until their mid 90s break up. Since the split of the Banshees Steven Severin has been busy working on various solo projects and collaborations as well as continuing to work as a producer and writing articles for The Guardian and The Independent.
