The live set and art piece, made in collaboration with Kate Wallich, is called The Sun Still Burns Here

, a live music and dance collaboration between indie pop musician

This isn’t the indie version of your standard stadium pop performance—no backup dancers flanking the star as he runs through the hits. Hadreas wrote all new music for the piece, developing the sound alongside the movements for almost a year. Commissioned by the Seattle Theater Group with Mass MoCA and The Joyce, the show premiered in Seattle last month and heads to the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis in December and Boston’s Institute of Contemporary Art in January.

He and Wallich have spoken about filming the piece as well as putting out a book. But for now, they’re happy for it to be a discrete live experience for a little while longer. “I love, right now, that you can only see and hear it when you come to the shows,” Hadreas says.Aesthetically, the pair pulled references from a grab bag of sources: Peter Greenaway movies, Cy Twombly paintings, and Paula Abdul’s “Cold Hearted Snake” video.
