Bandit Lites, a global leader in the entertainment lighting marketplace, has added a complement of Claypaky A.leda B-EYE K20 high-performance wash and beam fixtures to its inventory.
“We invested in the B-EYE K20s for their output and versatility,” says Jake Tickle at Bandit Lites. “Claypaky is a tried-and-tested industry standard.”
The B-EYE K20s have already been deployed on a number of shows and tours. Bandit provided the lighting package, including K20s, to Rascal Flatts’ “Back to Us Tour” and the “K-LOVE Fan Awards” show in Nashville’s famed Opry House. Bandit also furnished K20s for Logic’s set at the Hangout Music Festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama and for Chris Young’s “Losing Sleep 2018 World Tour” whose Lighting Designer Mike Stanley specifically requested the fixtures for their kaleidoscopic effects.
The B-EYE K20s have also been used by Garth Brooks, Steven Wilson, Halestorm, Godsmack and Barry Manilow.
ACT Lighting is the exclusive distributor of Claypaky fixtures in North America. “ACT has some of the best support in our industry,” says Tickle. “They have a process that is consistent and professional, which enables swift repairs when needed. And from the sales side Doug Mekanik is always available with useful information that allows me to better service our clients.”
Francesco Romagnoli, Claypaky Area Manager for North and Latin America, added, “Bandit has been a great customer and it’s a pleasure to see them working on so many shows with our fixtures.”
