We’ve all become caught up in our longing

for a new nostalgia, for a new half formed future.

The Machine & Big Chair will unveil a hologram of a utopia: plumes of sound drenched over our heads like waves, crystalline iridescence bending in humidity, ambient-electronic sweetness.

Quiet Light is the recording project of 23-year-old Texas-raised electronic folk artist, Riya Mahesh. Coming up in Austin’s band scene before relocating to Boston for medical school, Riya’s work is distinct and immersive. She melds the organic intimacy of folk with inventive, ambient sound collage production and undeniable pop songwriting, ending up somewhere in an intersection of Gillian Welch, Grouper, and Charli XCX over the course of 3 albums and numerous singles and EPs. Quiet Light houses songs that Riya says, “make you feel like you’re floating, music that feels like soft light.” Quiet Light has garnered her nods from Spotify’s Fresh Finds Experimental playlist and Iggy Pop’s BBC Radio 6 show, Iggy Confessional, as well as opening slots for Luna Li, Superfan, and Hovvdy.
