Step into the kaleidoscopic world of Cy Pierpont (AKA Secret Stash label head, Eric Foss) and Riley Helgeson, where music shimmers like rain-soaked streets under a midsummer’s moon — beautiful, but with shadows that twist and stretch in unexpected directions. As composers, multi-instrumentalists, and sonic explorers, Pierpont & Helgeson craft a sound that channels early '70s heist film energy and dimly lit lounges: the elegance of easy listening meeting the grit of rock and a heavy, funky pulse.

The Minneapolis duo cut their teeth together in the 2010s with The Lakers, recording and touring internationally behind soul legend Sonny Knight and working with The Valdons, Wanda Davis, and Jackie Harris.

For their new venture, Pierpont & Helgeson work more like an old-school score department than a band. “With no fixed lineup, we can be flexible,” Pierpont says. “Give the track what it needs—and not an ounce more,” Helgeson adds. Sample-ready drums and bass underpin large orchestral arrangements—quirky Hammond organ; baritone, electric, and acoustic guitars; strings; mallets; choral vocals; brass; woodwinds; Latin percussion; and even the Japanese taishōgoto make appearances.

So close your eyes, let the music surround you, and surrender to the pulse of a dreamscape where beauty and darkness dance together. In the hands of Pierpont & Helgeson, every note invites you into a world where the past is reimagined in shifting hues, and the future is a wild, enigmatic ride...
