Eric Prydz, whose HOLO and EPIC shows turned deep house into large-scale production, returned to London for the first time in six years at Ironworks in Silvertown.
Eric Prydz, whose “Call on Me” was a number one across Europe, played London for the first time in six years at Ironworks in Silvertown on Saturday 10 October 2026. His was the second headline night of the building’s opening season.
Prydz was born outside Stockholm in 1976. He was 28 when the hit arrived, a record built on a Steve Winwood sample and an aerobics video.
The music he wanted to make was deeper, slower house. He released it under other names: Pryda for the melodic material and Cirez D for the techno. The Pryda records have their own following, one that overlaps very little with the audience the hit gave him.
The other half of his reputation is production. His HOLO and EPIC shows put the music inside purpose-built holographic staging, and he generally refuses to tour them until a room can take the rig. That is why his London dates arrive years apart.
Ironworks stands on the Thames Wharf side of Canning Town, a room large enough to take his production. Jamie Jones had opened its run of three headline nights a week earlier.
