An immersive, genre-bending performance that explores the forces that shape us. TIDE/TIED is a sonic embrace of transformation and collective care.
TIDE/TIED, the latest work from Montreal artist, Thanya Iyer—an immersive, genre-bending performance that explores the forces that shape us: communal identity, love, grief, and healing. Blending lush orchestration, choir, spatialized sound, and dynamic visuals, TIDE/TIED unfolds like a lucid dream - a meditation on collective care, resilience, and radical imagination. Inviting the audience to listen deeply, move together and embrace the waves of change, this is a world where music becomes a living, breathing conversation.
About Thanya Iyer
Thanya Iyer (she/her) is an enigmatic songwriter who crafts sparkling, experimental pop music. Her live band features Pompey (he/him), Emilie Kahn (she/her), and Daniel Gélinas (he/him), whose acoustic and electronic contributions enliven serene, spiritual compositions. Thanya and the band’s arrangements empower listeners to embrace mindfulness, aesthetic beauty, and the interconnectedness of all things.
The group has performed all over Turtle Island, supporting acts like Julia Holter, Land of Talk, Kimya Dawson, Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter, Jeff Parker, and Kevin Drew. Following their 2020 Polaris long-listed, sophomore visual album KIND, the band's new record, TIDE/TIED, navigates the rhythms of communal identity, healing, and loving, within a dissonant world.

About TIDE/TIED
On her third full-length TIDE/TIED, Montreal artist Thanya Iyer expands on the future-folk designs of sophomore album KIND with washes of jazz-inflected pop and ensemble ambience. While Iyer explored a more personal journey of self-love on KIND, she, her band, and cohort of guest musicians embark on a new way of moving on TIDE/TIED, prizing collective care and communal healing as antidotes to the dissonances of living in a colonial, capitalistic world.
Over twelve tracks, Iyer alternates song, synth layer, strings, and loop substance, interfixing with percussionist Daniel Gélinas’s meditative drumming and multi-instrumentalist Pompey’s adventurous arrangements. Through a deeply collaborative process, Gélinas and Pompey—themselves experienced producers—created the powerful and intricate worldscapes of TIDE/TIED, guided by Iyer’s incisive musical vision, all the while maintaining a cohesive, collective approach to the creative process.
