Atlas Sound Biography

Atlas Sound is the musical solo project of Bradford James Cox (born in 1982 in Athens, Georgia), the lead singer of Atlanta four-piece Deerhunter.

Cox has released an album entitled Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See but Cannot Feel on indie-label Kranky to favorable reviews. In explaining his reasoning for a solo project, Cox has stated, "It's just that I have ideas that I can't make work with a five piece rock band...there's kind of this palette of sounds that I use that I don't necessarily get to use with Deerhunter". Cox has noted his heroes to be Ricky Wilson from The B-52's and Laura Carter from Athens punk band the Bar-B-Q Killers.


Cox suffers from Marfan's Syndrome.
