**REFLECTIONS** presents an evening of sound and light with legendary ambient producer Daniel Lanois. Blending studio-to-stage techniques, Lanois will perform a solo ambient set for pedal steel and sampler, using a multitrack setup to reimagine his existing material in real time. We’ll announce his opening artist soon; you don’t want to miss this rare opportunity to see Lanois live in NYC!⟴
**DANIEL LANOIS** is a producer, singer, pedal steel guitarist, and visionary sound designer, born in Quebec, Canada, now based in Los Angeles.
With his production partner **Brian Eno**, Lanois made a series of timeless records that practically define the ambient genre. 1982’s *Ambient 4: On Land*. 1983’s *Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks*. 1984’s *The Pearl*. Each one evokes a sense of weightlessness and gentle abstraction, bringing to the foreground a series of ethereal, yet visceral, landscapes.
Further albums with **Jon Hassell**, **Harold Budd**, **U2**, **Bob Dylan**, and **Peter Gabriel** further expanded the idea of studio-as-instrument, making every part of the production an integral component of the overall texture, and striking the perfect balance between avant-garde experimentation and straightforward pleasure.
His first major pop production effort was on U2's *The Unforgettable Fire* (1984). His work attracted the attention of Peter Gabriel, who hired Lanois to produce the album *So* (1986). Combined with the commercial success of *So*, Lanois's work on U2's *The Joshua Tree* (1987) and *Achtung Baby* (1991) made him the most sought-after producer in rock music.
Yet Lanois is a songwriter, and his solo work mines the spiritual expanse of his lived experience. With his gliding pedal steel guitar, his albums explore grassroots music, French impressionism, electronic soundscapes, dub, Mexican ballads, gospel… in other words, a world of depth and emotion, crystallized in song and sound.
