In our first episode of this short docu-series, lead guitarist Darren Whittaker and keyboardist Glen Ahearn talk about how their tour works.

In this second episode, sound engineer Andy talks about the level of intricacy that is required to reproduce the same sounds as Pink Floyd.

In this third episode, lighting designer, Glenn 'G' Border talks about how much time is required to create the visually beautiful show that the Pink Floyd Experience puts on.

In this fourth episode, you'd be able to catch a glimpse of what goes on behind the Wall, literally.

Most of the crew working with the Pink Floyd Experience has been with them for at least 15 years, each playing a crucial part in this massive tour.

Find out how they are replicating Pink Floyd's soundscapes and visuals in the video above.

We will be releasing the second episode next week, stay updated with us on The Sound.
