Las Vegas, Nevada (2023)

Produced by Moment Factory, a 5-minute multimedia capsule is presented on the Sphere in Las Vegas, announcing the U2 concert series: “U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere”.

Troublemakers had the mandates of musical direction, sound design and mixing.

Before each performance, the image of Achtung Baby is broadcast on the outside of the Sphere from several vantage points across the city, through the world’s largest 360° screen.
