Tycho, the San Francisco electronic band conducted by producer and graphic artist Scott Hansen, introduced a luminous new prism to electronic music last year with their album Epoch. Today they share the video for the lead track “Glider”. Watch it below. The band projects stunning visuals during their live shows and the video blends these with elements of visionary Russian filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1972 film Solaris, as an homage.
Tycho kick off their European tour in Dublin on Thursday and will also perform for the first time ever in Russia at Izvestiya Hall in Moscow on November 9th. See the rest of their tour dates below.
“As an American kid growing up in the ‘80s I never thought I’d get a chance to visit Moscow, let alone play a show there.” Says band head Scott Hansen, “So much in the world has changed since those days but the power of music to unite people transcends. We’re always grateful to be able to share what we love with people from all over the world and so it is with great honor that we will play Moscow for the first time.”
