Son Lux is an experimental band.
From the start, Son Lux has operated like a sonic test kitchen. The Academy Award® and BAFTA-nominated trio strive to question deeply held assumptions about how music is made and reconstruct it from a molecular level. What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. The trio strengthened their chemistry and honed their collective intuition while creating, releasing, and touring six recordings, including Brighter Wounds (2018) and triple album Tomorrows (2021). Distilling their various influences, Son Lux scored A24’s Best Picture winner, Everything Everywhere All at Once, for which they were nominated for two Academy Awards and a BAFTA. The full score album features new collaborations with Mitski, David Byrne, Randy Newman, and Moses Sumney, among others. Their latest film venture is for Marvel Studios, scoring 2025’s highly anticipated Thunderbolts*.
