Ever dream you’re in a spaceship on a never-ending journey to an unknowable destination? That’s how Film School guitarist and solo artist Nyles Lannon often thought of life in the early part of the pandemic, when time seemed to stand still, before the vaccines or even knowing when there might be any. But whether that spaceship is a desolate prison or a vessel for escaping to a better world depends on how you use it. With literally nowhere to go, Nyles and his then-12-year-old son Skye - on drums and modular synths - would jam most evenings in their home studio, just to have something to focus their minds on and counter the tedium of “remote learning.” The result is the duo's debut album, Vanishing, ten tracks of shoegaze haze, new wave hooks and collaborations with friends Zach Rogue (Rogue Wave), Neil Rodenmeyer (Lupa Rosa), and Ian McDonald (FUTVRST) that firmly cements Nyte Skye in the pantheon of great father/son combos alongside Ornette and Denardo Coleman and Jeff and Spencer Tweedy.
