about
Moon High began in 2007 as a home recording project between two like-minded Ohio musicians. Their auspicious self-titled debut was released the following year and prompted the duo to recruit additional members to adapt their multi-layered sounds on stage. After a couple years of member changes, ongoing praise, and honing their live performance, Moon High has evolved into a tight-knit quartet determined to play their own brand of melodious folk tunes. In 2010, Moon High released ‘Smoke Before My Eyes,’ a limited run 7” that epitomizes their sound. Prominent vocal harmonies, moody string arrangements, subtle percussion, atmospheric electric guitar, and shades of flute, banjo, and autoharp bring the title track and the wistful ‘On and On’ to life. Moon High has since embarked on the completion of their long-anticipated, full-length sophomore album. ‘Six Suns,’ to be released on July 16th, 2011, is bookended with the band’s more elegant instrumental pieces and dances between up tempo, country-tinged pop songs, dreamy laments, and moments of near rock-and-roll. In the years since their debut release, Moon High has emerged sounding more confident and at home in their songcraft; ‘Six Suns’ shows the band coming into it’s own, reveling in what’s been uncovered along the way.
