  • Rafiq Bhatia Son Lux Guitarist Brings New Trio to MASS Moca
    For Immediate Release 18 January 2018 Contact: Jodi Joseph Director of Communications 413.664.4481 x8113 [email protected] Rafiq Bhatia Son Lux guitarist brings new trio to MASS MoCA NORTH ADAMS, MASSACHUSETTS — Rafiq Bhatia is a guitarist and composer who balances meticulous sound art with searing improvisation, “transcending real sound in real time with the unexpected” (The New York Times). As a member of Son Lux he anchors the ensemble’s minimal arrangements — and he appears at MASS MoCA with his new trio on Saturday, February 10, at 8pm. In 2014, Rafiq Bhatia and drummer Ian Chang joined Ryan Lott’s trip-hop project Son Lux, creating a three-piece dynamo. Bhatia epitomized the Son Lux approach to music, mixing electronic pop, unusual soul, and outright experimentation into a heady, genre-less production — an approach that prompted NPR to describe the group as “the world’s most lethal band.” Son Lux has since toured extensively and released an LP, Bones, to critical acclaim, described by NPR as “phenomenal…blend[s] pulsating electronics and skittering start-stop beats with stark piano melodies, lavish string flourishes and flute trails, and Lott’s soulfully robotic voice.” Born in Hickory, North Carolina, Bhatia first began playing the guitar in high school. His interest in music largely stemmed from the rap he heard on the radio and his grandfather’s a cappella renditions of Ginans— or short hymns based on verses from the Quran. At Oberlin College, Bhatia continued to explore a disparate collection of genres while experimenting with his trademark electro-jazz sound.
