@kikagaku.moyo means ‘geometric patterns’, it’s an apt description of the five-piece Japanese band’s music style, with songs that build up to create lush, structured pieces. For #GucciGig, a collaborative project that invites musicians to work with artists to represent their live performance in illustrations, photography and videos featuring #GucciEyewear, illustrator @alessio_vitelli casts the band wearing black aviators with yellow lenses in rainbow-colored 1970s-style psychedelic posters, putting them in the context of their influences. Kikagaku Moyo now support the psychedelia scene in Japan with their own label, spreading improvisatory music all over the world. — @kchayka Every musician from #GucciGig has created a playlist on #Gucci’s new @spotify profile, discover Kikagaku Moyo’s imaginary journey through outer space playlist ‘Summer Trip to the Tropical Galaxy’ through link in bio. @alessandro_michele

Traveling the gospel circuit with his family as child showed musician @curtisharding he “didn’t have to do just one thing or style of music; I could intermix genres,” he said in an interview for #GucciGig’s series featuring #GucciEyewear, found on #GucciStories on Gucci.com. Photographer and drummer Matt Correia @cantina_ worked with the illustrator @johnzabawa to design color-saturated 1960s-inspired posters that show the musician in profile rendered in purple and green. On an imagined album cover, Curtis Harding wears oversized Gucci sunglasses made of black acetate with crystals embedded on the front, presenting a fresh image of contemporary soul. — @sirsargent Every musician from #GucciGig has created a playlist on #Gucci’s new Spotify profile, discover Curtis Harding’s ‘Dark, Darker, Darkest’ collection of soul music through link in bio. @alessandro_michele

Old King Cole Younger is the lo-fi side project of Cole Alexander @oldkingcoleyounger, the guitarist of @theblacklips_ as well as Crush. Working with Los Angeles artist @arianapapademetropoulos for #GucciGig’s artist-musician collaboration series featuring #GucciEyewear, the pair created fictional collaged album covers and gig posters with Cole wearing 70s-inspired, crystal embedded eyewear. Both creators take diverse influences and turn them into new combinations—both familiar and alien, like the planet Cole crash-lands on. —@kchayka Every musician from #GucciGig has created a playlist on #Gucci’s new Spotify profile, discover Cole Alexander’s ‘Lunar Egg’ playlist through link in bio. @alessandro_michele

For #GucciGig, a series of musical performances and artist collaborations showing #GucciEyewear, @jordan_hemingway created images and videos featuring @yvestumor. Daubed in paint, Yves wears Gucci aviators, cast in sharp gray-yellow light. The results are like glitch filled transmissions over airwaves, reflecting the quick transitions of Yves’s music, a mixture of ambient electronica and soul vocals. — @kchayka Every musician from #GucciGig has created a playlist on #Gucci’s new Spotify profile, discover Yves Tumor’s ‘Music for Disassociating’ playlist through link in bio. @alessandro_michele ‘Economy of Freedom’ by Yves Tumor and Croatian Amor.
