Releasenotes:
Equal parts producer and composer, Son Lux (aka Ryan Lott) bridges an unusual
gap between old-world music discipline and next-level experimentation.
Meditative but heaving with energy, Lanterns finds a peculiar congruency between
futuristic soul and ancient sentiment. Driving orchestral pop (Lost It To
Trying, No Crimes) is placed alongside haunting minimalism (Pyre, Enough Of Our
Machines), often starkly juxtaposing densely layered arrangements with Lott's
intimate voice.
In recent past Son Lux has gained notoriety both for his s/s/s project (with
Sufjan Stevens and Serengeti), and for being named NPR's "Best New Artist of the
Year". His third full-length album, and his first for Joyful Noise (Kishi Bashi,
Sebadoh, etc.), positions Son Lux at the helm of an impressive ensemble of
instrumentalists and singers, including Chris Thile (The Punch Brothers), Peter
Silberman (The Antlers), DM Stith, Lily & Madeleine, Darren King (Mutemath),
Ieva Berberian (Gem Club) and yMusic (Dirty Projectors, Bon Iver).
