Pianiste et productrice new-yorkaise, Kelly Moran s’est imposée comme une figure incontournable de l’avant-garde contemporaine. Collaboratrice de FKA twigs, Yves Tumor ou Oneohtrix Point Never, elle explore les potentialités infinies du piano préparé et augmenté, entre textures hypnotiques et éclats expérimentaux. Révélée avec Bloodroot et Ultraviolet, elle revient en 2025 avec Don’t Trust Mirrors, un album où piano et synthés se reflètent dans un jeu de distorsion et de renaissance intime.

Kelly Moran is a pianist and producer from New York who has spent her career excavating the sonic possibilities of the piano. An accomplished and highly sought-after composer, she has collaborated with an array of visionary contemporaries including FKA twigs, Yves Tumor, Kelsey Lu, Oneohtrix Point Never, and the Avalanches.
As a solo artist, Moran's critically acclaimed albums, Bloodroot (2017) and Ultraviolet (2018) have explored a variety of extended piano techniques like John Cage-inspired prepared piano and exercises in improvisation. Her unique strand of experimental piano compositions, which conjure hypnotizing textures and dramatic compositional arcs, have been included on year-end lists across classical, avant-garde, and metal genres.
In 2018, Moran was signed as a Yamaha Artist and began composing with Yamaha’s technologically-enhanced pianos, most notably the Disklavier player piano. Her releases Vesela (2023) and Moves in the Field (2024) showcase deeper sensitivity to the piano, with Moran merging her human restraint with the limitless possibilities of the disklavier.
Moves in the Field was praised by the New York Times for being “a softhearted but steel-skinned set of 10 piano pieces that are as rapturous as a waterfall or as delicate as vapor. Her first album in six years, it is the redemptive conclusion in an extended span of personal tragedy and professional doubt, all ingrained in its sweeping songs.”
Moran’s upcoming album, Don't Trust Mirrors, marks her pivotal return to synth and prepared piano, showcasing the emotional experience of seeing yourself through distortion, reflection, and the slow work of piecing yourself back together. The album features Warp Records labelmate Bibio and comprises 10 tracks of magnificent timbral refractions. Weaving together shimmering textures and sharp edges, Don't Trust Mirrors is an immersive journey towards self-reconnection and coming back into focus.

Ze werkt samen met FKA Twigs, Yves Tumor en Oneohtrix Point Never en verkent de oneindige mogelijkheden van de geprepareerde en versterkte piano, tussen hypnotiserende texturen en experimentele uitbarstingen.
Ze brak door met ‘Bloodroot’ en ‘Ultraviolet’ en keert in 2025 terug met ‘Don’t Trust Mirrors’, een album waarop piano en synthesizers weerspiegelen in een spel van vervorming en intieme wedergeboorte.
