Eye on Sound: Johnny Jewel (live score)

poster Eye on Sound; Johnny Jewel
Johnny Jewel, long-term collaborator and like-minded creator of David Lynch, composed music for Twin Peaks: The Return, including haunting numbers such as 'Windswept' and 'The Flame'. Multi-instrumentalist Jewel is known for his use of analogue equipment. In 1996, he founded the band Glass Candy with singer Ida No. The band started with a no-wave sound and later evolved into electronic music with Italo disco influences. In 2006, Jewel founded the record label Italians Do It Better, which focuses on disco, electronic and synth music. He works closely with artists such as Glass Candy, Chromatics and Desire.

Tonight, Jewel will perform a partially improvised live show based on his new album (KALEIDOSCOPE), due out this fall, combined with his film work, and the best of what he's done with all his bands. An echo of Lynchian darkness, a dance floor séance full of glamour and mystery.
