Joon Moon’s story started in 2014 in Montmartre, Paris, in the studio of the excessively discreet Julien Decoret, born of the desire to continue after touring with Nouvelle Vague, Florent Marchet etc. … and start his own project.

With all the creative decisions already made for keyboards, vocals and drums, Julien joined up with his pals Raphael Chassin and Sébastien Trouvé for both the studio recording and stage show that they had already collectively imagined.

In early 2015, thanks to chance encounters and other musically-minded friends like Marc Collin and Hugh Coltman, Julien Decoret met another artist with an impressive live show (and someone just as reserved as he is) - Krystle Warren, born in Kansas City and recently arrived in France.
The four had mutual friends, and after a few try-outs in the studio and a misunderstanding about a certain Alice / Juliette Lewis (a story that makes them all laugh even today) a real synergy came to pass, with Joon Moon the result - both in the studio and on stage.

Their first e.p. “Chess”, released late 2015, showcases a mix of precise and impressive pop and soul arrangements, hinting that the album due in 2016 will be an exciting discovery, joyfully crashing through numerous musical barriers.

A word of warning though - the siren-like voice of Krystle Warren may have you addicted to Joon Moon before you know it! “Apple Day”, “Chess” and “Help Me” are the first taste of a debut album undoubtedly full of surprises.

"Warren's voice is an extraordinary instrument, murmuring with tenderness at times, growling with intensity at others. It vividly recalls Nina Simone in its depth and smokiness, as well as John Martyn and (Jeff) Buckley in terms of virtuosic variety." - The Guardian

Nightlands, the project of Philadelphia-based Dave Hartley (best known as a core member and longtime bassist of The War On Drugs), will release his third album, I Can Feel the Night Around Me, on May 5th. Immediately following, he and his band will head out on a North American tour.  Continuing the tradition of previous Nightlands releases Forget the Mantra (2010) and Oak Island (2013), I Can Feel the Night Around Me showcases Hartley's ability to layer his voice and conjure some of the most beautiful virtual choirs in modern music.

I Can Feel the Night Around Me

Nightlands - "Lost Moon"

Happy to announce the release of my new single: "Hearts" 

"Hearts" is a fresh cut from the upcoming Blackbird Blackbird album: "It Hurts to Say Goodbye". 

The album will be self-released & done without help from anyone--no label, no expensive PR team, just me releasing songs the best songs that I've made in the last two years all on my own.

I've been working on this album for two years & I hope it shows. My grandfather passed away and he asked me to write him a song right before he died. I'm dedicating this album to him and to my grandmother. 

The album is about dealing with tragedy and finding ways to cope with death, moving forward, finding positivity and finding truth in your heart despite all the pain and hardships in the world. 

I hope this song inspires you, brings you joy and gives you the strength to move forward in life.

I'm so very excited to finally have it out in the world!  
Thanks for your support & for your patience!

Love,
Mikey Blackbird

lyrics

There was,
There was a night 
I spent waiting for you.
Cadillac.
Cadillac
Headlight.

Nothing is left
in California.
Come again.
Come again.
Come again.

So if you don’t take me home, 
I’m alone at the side of the road.

And you won’t yell
If I don’t tell
That’s it’s true - 
You do you.

Nobody knew, we keep it so safe. 
One penny shoe across a carpet.
Me/you: the thought that maybe one day.
When you’re coming down, you’re in your coattails… 

No more
Heat.

Then you
Shut out the light 
That you traded for me.
Come again
Cadillac
Headlight.

There’s a thing,
There’s a thing that you do,
And I’ll tell it to you -
Oo but I can’t say now!

He’s a king
In a kingdom for two -
Yeah well maybe for you.

So you don’t take me home, 
Cuz you know that’s not the road.

And you won’t yell
If I don’t tell
That’s it’s true - 
You do you.

Nobody knew, we keep it so safe. 
One penny shoe across a carpet.
Me/you: the thought that maybe one day.
When you’re coming down, you’re in your coattails -
In the motel.

No more.

And I’ll sell you tale of a boy and a man.
Why do you do
What you do?

J—

After Later / When To Let Go

When To Let go

Harvest is the debut single taken from the stunning debut LP 'Ascension'. A video to accompany the single is available now on both Vevo and Youtube. 
pre-orders are live now through the FatCat website. 
Samana recorded and produced both the LP and the video and had this to say about Harvest: 

'Harvest is the outcome of a social experiment, filmed over the duration of two hours, designed to explore and capture one of the fundamental concepts behind the album Ascension; the transitioning between one plain of consciousness to another. With dance being one the most primitive forms of human behaviour, we created a musical environment that shifted between five notions. Orchestrated with the intention of removing each individual from their bodies, from time and from their conscious state of awareness, to a state of catharsis and transcendence, we documented the language of movement that became the immediate dialogue of their subconscious, and in turn, witnessed the collective ascension of the group to pass into an altered state; a higher frequency and dimension of being and energy'
