Bear McCreary: « The Singularity »

Bear McCreary brings The Singularity to Pumpehuset in København on 2 August 2026. The Los Angeles–based composer and multi-instrumentalist has shaped the sound of contemporary screens, from the breakthrough of Battlestar Galactica to The Walking Dead, Outlander, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Black Sails, extending to cinema with 10 Cloverfield Lane and Godzilla: King of the Monsters, and to game music with God of War and God of War Ragnarök.

On stage, he channels that storytelling instinct into a live set where orchestra-minded arrangements meet driving percussion, solo voices and choirs, and instruments drawn from diverse traditions. His writing leans on recurring motifs, dense textures and clear thematic identities, carried here by a band built to translate his narrative worlds into performance. McCreary often steps behind keyboards or accordion, shaping the flow of pieces that move between sweeping color and raw rhythmic energy. The Singularity zeroes in on the blend of pulse, melody and timbre that defines his work, bringing his screen universes into direct contact with the crowd at Pumpehuset.
