Tesla Boy is
a project born amidst the gritty backdrop of the 80’s and 90’s Moscow music
scene. The Russian four-piece, who divide their time between New York and
Moscow, create soaring synth-pop that exists somewhere in an alternate universe
void of geographical borders and time- where Prince might just be the long-lost
member of Cut Copy.
Today, the band release their new single,
"Strong," exclusively on Vice
Noisey, a soaring 80’s inspired anthem with glittering synths and
an infectious beat that bleeds with all the heart and soul of a Tesla Boy
track. “It’s really important to me to be a person who can make a connection
between the cultures - western and eastern,” muses frontman and principal
songwriter, Sevidov, about why Tesla Boy’s music has the ability to resonate
with listeners. “I'm from Russia, and I travel all over the world, and I sing
for different people from different countries. My mission is to unite our
cultures. It's very important for me.”
