Show Pony is the solo project of Amsterdam-based American double bassist and singer Laura Nygren. In her new audiovisual project I May Fall into the Sound, which she created with Tatiana Rosa & Nina Kay, she uses a synthesizer to explore the erosion of the human body as a metaphor for our aging planet. In doing so, she focuses on the small eroding island of Massancumock. The island near where Nygren grew up is expected to disappear into the surrounding sea by 2026.

Using beats, synths, strings and lyrics, Show Pony creates atmospheric landscapes; a world to disappear into. During live performances, she brings these landscapes to life for the audience through her immersive performances.

In 2021, Show Pony launched her eponymous debut EP, created in collaboration with producer/multi-instrumentalist No Compliments, in a specially designed 3D online space during the online edition of Rewire Festival. In 2022, she created Lullaby for a Slow Apocalypse with Tatiana Rosa & Simon van Steenis, a performative installation combining string instruments, ceramic instruments and chamber music arrangements from her debut EP. This work challenged the audience to question their definitions of the end of the world.
