SON LUX
Please note the above timings relate to doors (opening and closing times). Performance times may vary.
Having released their 2021 triple album Tomorrows and 2022 49-track soundtrack for A24’s highly-anticipated film Everything Everywhere All At Once, experimental trio Son Lux (Rafiq Bhatia, Ian Chang, Ryan Lott) will be performing in our EartH Hall.
What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. The trio strengthened their chemistry and honed their collective intuition while creating, releasing, and touring six recordings, including Brighter Wounds (2018) and Tomorrows (2021).
Though Son Lux embraces musical exploration as a foundational practice, the band has never before experimented with format. Tomorrows did away with the restrictions of the traditional album, marking a notable departure in feeling from past releases. Whereas prior Son Lux albums have been packed to the brim with ideas, the three-volume format of Tomorrows afforded the music space to breathe and develop. Each release sees songs spun together with liminal instrumental spaces, resulting in a more natural flow while letting sound lead in conveying the complexity and tension of the story.
