Polyrock

Polyrock

Polyrock est un groupe musical d'avant garde formé à New York en 1978 et dissout en 1982.

Deux frères, Billy et Tommy Robertson, auteurs et compositeurs des titres, constituaient le noyau de ce groupe. Polyrock a bénéficié de la collaboration de Philip Glass, qui a également co-produit les albums et participé aux enregistrements.

Le groupe, malgré un succès critique, est resté confidentiel.
