Morphing from the Fringe cabaret underworld into live music lineups with her live synth setup and modular rig, coupled with tongue in cheek chat, she’s notably toured as support for Adam Ant’s UK ANTICS tour (2022) and Professor Elemental (2025), as well as live club sets at Antichrist and Mønster Queen.
Described as the “lovechild of Victoria Wood and Gary Numan”, her punk-electro sound underscores politically-enraged, satirical lyrics. Her latest album Noisebleed was released in February 2026, reviewed as "synth pop which hits you like a freight train".
Passionate about the fascinating history and blazing future of electronic music, she regularly tours her TedTalk style gig Deadly Synths, and hosts/organises Camden EMOM (electronic music open mic), first Wednesday of every month.
You can also find her playing synths for dark disco act Mango in Euphoria and glam gothrocker David Ryder Prangley.

“Laurie Black just proved that a synth-wielding punk can transform a pub venue into a cosmic arena of sound. She gave us raw passion, big noise, and real talk, all in one go. Personal, political, and positively explosive – a scream into the void that became a call to arms for everyone in that room."
