Los Angeles, CA’s Lo Moon – comprised of Matt Lowell, Crisanta Baker, Sam Stewart, and Sterling Laws – are thrilled to announce their highly anticipated sophomore album, A Modern Life, set for release on February 25th via Strngr Recordings/Thirty Tigers. A Modern Life is the band’s way of navigating through struggles with identity and expectation – but at its core, remains filled with hope and a desire to stay true to oneself. Produced by the band, the album features additional co-production by Yves Rothman (Yves Tumor, Miya Folick), as well as Chris Walla, who helmed their 2017 self-titled debut.
In conjunction with the album’s announce, the band has released a brilliant new song called “Raincoats,” a track where the vocals echo into a shuffling groove eventually leading to the climactic rush of electric guitars and modulated synths. “Raincoats” follows the incredible track “Dream Never Dies,” which was released to acclaim this past fall.
Siphoning guitar transmissions and a dynamic vocal push-and-pull through a lens of cinematic production, Lo Moon deftly balances expansive soundscapes and eloquent songcraft, using music to make sense of each day on A Modern Life. “It’s about survival,” observes Lowell. “Navigating through all that’s thrown at us. Maintaining who we are and where we want to be. Music itself has been so powerful for us in our own survival, it can change everything in an instant. As a band, we’ve got a lot of reverence for it and strive for it. We don’t take it for granted.”
Lo Moon will be hitting the road for a headlining tour this spring, in addition to supporting their previous tourmates The War On Drugs in Europe. All dates are below.
