BIOGRAPHY
If Salvador Dali’s paintings were translated into music, they would sound like déCollage. déCollage is a community of artists and musicians held together by its founding member, Reed Fuchs. Their shows are known for being theatrical, avant-garde, and free-spirited. Artists paint during their set to create a multisensory experience that transcends music. Their eclectic sound incorporates accordion, tongue synth, drum pads, glockenspiel, and a trash can drum kit, painted atop a canvas of found sounds Reed records {typewriters, trains, leaves, zippers, babies, Zippos, circuit bending}. déCollage collects everything from Freud, John Cage, Tom Waits, Picasso and blends it with their own distinct essence. They have been compared to Animal Collective, The Mars Volta, and The Books. Reed released his poetry book, Electric Sugar in 2011, and unleashed a live Electric Sugar DVD in May '12. déCollage’s debut album, The Telos Amaranthine, will release 10/25 and the 2nd album, Crystal Hourglass Polymesmerization is finished and set for release Summer 2013. Reed delivers the lyrics with unique character and expression; exploring our fragmented, post-modern world through metaphysics, surrealism, abstraction, and most of all wonder! déCollage is interested in sounds for their own sake; in this way their music is World, the world of sound, the world’s sound.
