About:
Bay Area natives Nyles Lannon and his then 12 year-old son Skye spent many nights during lockdown holed up in the home studio, channeling their anxieties into songs. They made a promise to complete a whole album, chronicling that time together. The result is a lively stew of atmospheric, moody and cathartic rock, articulated with Skye’s dynamic, Stewart Copeland-inspired drumming.
Fast forward two years, and on January 10th, Nyte Skye finally released their debut LP “Vanishing” on the Sonic Ritual record label.
“The songs on Vanishing capture the little ways we were coping with those early days of the pandemic; some reflective and poignant, some escapist, some playful,” says Nyles. “Music was our bond and in some ways our guiding light.”
Nyles Lannon still plays in his shoegaze band Film School, coming off a string of shows opening for Pavement in the Fall. He has released several solo works, earning numerous accolades, including “One of the Best Albums of the Year” from the San Francisco Bay Guardian and “Best Folktronica Artist” from SF Weekly. Nyte Skye includes Oakland’s Nichole Kreglow (synths) and David Gould (bass) to bring their music to the stage.
