Born in Newcastle, Australia, Daniel Johns is a vocalist, composer, guitarist, pianist and producer.  The frontman of Silverchair – one of the most acclaimed and successful bands in Australian music history. He is also one half of The Dissociatives alongside Australian dance guru Paul Mac and he is the only person to win APRA’s prestigious ‘Songwriter Of The Year’ Award three times.

Once Upon a Dead Man is the sound of three brothers and an old friend making a foray into new territory together. 
It’s an excursion that’s been some time in the planning; brothers Edd, Charlie and Will Simpson had long talked about collaborating, but their respective careers (in Brigade, Busted, Fightstar, More Dangerous Animal, Union Sound Set and Charlie’s solo work) meant it was a few years before the project came to fruition. 
Along with long-time friend and collaborator Simon Britcliffe, the Simpson brothers are set to release Concepts and Phenomena, a deft blend of beautifully constructed vocal harmonies and washes of electronica. The band consciously stepped outside the traditional label structure to record the EP in their own time, with no predetermined musical direction, no defined roles within the band, and no commercial objective.  
Converging on Suffolk’s Old Jet studios from across the country, each member found themselves using more sequencing and synths than ever before during a series of relaxed sessions. The resulting recordings are the perfect product of a group of musicians who’ve known each other for decades, balancing bouncing beats and glacial soundscapes with plenty of fraternal warmth.




Multigenre experiments in sound. I like minimalism, serialism, drone, anything slow and moving

From the start, Son Lux has operated as something akin to a sonic test kitchen. The Academy Award® and BAFTA-nominated band strives 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). The result is a carefully cultivated musical language rooted in curiosity and balancing opposites that largely eschews genre and structural conventions. And yet, the band remains audibly indebted to iconoclastic artists in soul, hip-hop, and experimental improvisation who themselves carved new paths forward. 

Distilling these varied influences, Son Lux searches for equilibrium of raw emotional intimacy and meticulous electronic constructions. 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.
