Can you dig it? Concert-goers will. Today, in honor of indie classic Shovel Knight's 10th anniversary, SOHO Live and Yacht Club Games announced Shovel Knight Live: Steel Thy Concert, a live orchestra concert.
Toyko-based live music company SOHO Live, responsible for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Orchestra World Tour and Stardew Valley: Festival of Seasons, is spearheading the concert based on the 2014 cult-classic. Arranging the music is Grammy and Tony award-winning artist Charlie Rosen (alongside his Grammy-winning group, The 8-Bit Big Band) and Shovel Knight’s original composer Jake Kaufman. There will be two shows: one in New York and one in Los Angeles.
There, you'll experience the music of Shovel Knight in a whole new way through live orchestration and rock (not the stone kind, but the music kind) ensemble. In addition, members of Yacht Club Games will be in attendance for a live conversation and to meet for VIP ticket holders. The event will last two hours and include fan-favorite tunes such as High Above the Land, The Magic Mirror and Strike the Earth!, all set to HD gameplay from Shovel Knight and other series entries.
