MoonFace the Mage is the bardic alias of Folk-Rock solo artist Rhodri Welsh. It's been 20 years since the inception of the MoonFace moniker: Following the indefinite hiatus of his first band, Rhod opted to start writing and performing under a pseudonym to complement the finger-picking guitar style, broken-hearted strum and folk-fantasy confessions of this new solo acoustic project, so stole it straight from a magic faraway tree.
In 2005, Rhod joined forces with producer James Morgan to record and release a DIY EP titled 'Beyond All Recognition.' Whilst working full time in a Cardiff tailor shop, MoonFace continued to play live shows with festival appearances and a UK tour. Sharing the stage with artists such as Devendra Banhart, Seth Lakeman, Maria Taylor, and Hayseed Dixie. And in 2008, seamlessly evolving into a 4-piece band called 'MoonFace and the Familiar Shapes.'
Now, after a decade of creating a compendium of tales that traverse the realms of godless things and mountain kings in thematic existentialism, Rhodri Welsh and James Morgan join forces once again to record 'Astoria, to the Sea!' A full length LP to be released later this year under the updated moniker; MoonFace The Mage.
