Thanya Iyer (synth, violin, voice, piano) is an enigmatic songwriter who crafts sparkling, experimental pop music. Her live band features Pompey (bass, clarinet, voice), Emilie Kahn (harp, flute, voice), and Daniel Gélinas (drums, voice), whose acoustic and electronic contributions enliven serene, spiritual compositions. Thanya and the band's arrangements empower listeners to embrace mindfulness, aesthetic beauty, and the interconnectedness of all things. The group has performed all over Turtle Island, supporting acts like Julia Holter, Land of Talk, Kimya Dawson, Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter, Jeff Parker, and Kevin Drew. Following their 2020 Polaris long-listed, sophomore visual album KIND, the band's new record, TIDE/TIED (Topshelf Records), navigates the rhythms of communal identity, healing, and loving, within a dissonant world.
