Son Lux

Post-rock
Post-rock

Son Lux is a Post-rock act. Their sound grew out of Moses Sumney, Woodkid, David Byrne, André 3000 and Randy Newman. Those roots explain a lot about how Son Lux arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Glass Animals, Bibio, alt-J, Cristobal Tapia de Veer and Thom Yorke, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Poppy and G-Eazy, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 39 connections around Son Lux, reaching back through Moses Sumney and forward to Poppy.
