About

Blue Foundation is a Danish band. Their cinematic dream pop, shoegaze and electronics inspired compositions are known for being featured in films such as Twilight and Miami Vice, and on television series including CSI: Miami and The Vampire Diaries.

Danish singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Tobias Wilner founded the group in 2000, inspired by Mark E. Smith's approach to forming a band (the Fall), recruiting a rotating cast of traditional musicians throughout the band's history to inspire creativity.

Since 2010 the core of the band has been Tobias Wilner and Bo Rande, based in Crown Heights, Brooklyn and Copenhagen, Denmark.

Blue Foundation released their fifth album Blood Moon worldwide on 2 September 2016. The album featured appearances from Mark Kozelek (Sun Kil Moon / Red House Painters), Erika Spring (Au Revoir Simone / Nice As Fuck), Jonas Bjerre (Mew), Sonya Kitchell, Sara Savery (aka Drop the Gun) and Findlay Brown.

Tobias Wilner is active recording and touring with his side project New York United, an experimental band featuring Daniel Carter, Federico Ughi, and Djibril Toure. The dream pop electronic project Tachys, with the lead singer of Mew, Jonas Bjerre, is also noteworthy.

He has released music under the alias Bichi and with his shoegaze band Ghost Society. Additionally, he composes music for films and TV, both under his own name and as Blue Foundation.

Bo Rande is active with the Choir of Young Believers.
