LA trio Lo Moon in Birmingham gig
Los Angeles trio Lo Moon have just released their self-titled debut record and to promote it have announced a UK tour.
Released on Columbia Records and produced by Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie) and Francois Tetaz (Gotye), it features guest turns by The War On Drugs’ Adam Granduciel and Charlie Hall, who they supported last year.
Both the record and tour dates have been hugely anticipated, and those who missed them in Birmingham in the autumn supporting London Grammar on their tour can catch them headlining the Hare & Hounds on May 24.
Listen to Lo Moon's track Loveless below:
A spokesperson for the band said: "Music is the universal language for the group of people who all come from vastly different corners of the earth that comprise Lo Moon. Singer/guitarist Matt Lowell is from Long Island, bassist Crisanta Baker from Denver, and guitarist Samuel Stewart from London; Los Angeles was their eventual meeting place.
"And from this meeting place has come something astounding. The record - a cool, dark, meditative exploration of bittersweet sadness and cathartic joy - could sit as happily among the likes of The XX as it could Talk Talk, Depeche Mode, early Coldplay, or the cinematic scope of Sigur Ros."
