Lo Moon

About

Lo Moon is a band that thrives in the liminal space between introspection and grandeur, crafting atmospheric soundscapes that feel both intimate and expansive. Hailing from Los Angeles, the trio—comprising Matt Lowell, Crisanta Baker, and Samuel Stewart—blends elements of dream pop, post-rock, and synth-driven indie to create a sound that is as cinematic as it is emotionally resonant. Drawing inspiration from acts like Talk Talk, Radiohead, and The Blue Nile, Lo Moon’s music is a masterclass in tension and release, with shimmering guitars, pulsating synths, and haunting vocals that linger long after the final note. Since their 2017 debut single “Loveless,” Lo Moon has steadily carved out a niche in the indie music landscape. Their self-titled debut album, released in 2018, earned critical acclaim for its lush production and lyrical depth, while their 2022 follow-up, *A Modern Life*, showcased a more experimental edge, blending electronic textures with organic instrumentation. The band’s live performances, often described as transcendent, have solidified their reputation as one of indie’s most compelling acts. Lo Moon’s cultural impact lies in their ability to evoke a sense of timelessness, bridging the gap between ’80s-inspired synth-pop and modern indie sensibilities. They’ve shared stages with acts like Phoenix and London Grammar, further cementing their place in the indie pantheon. Currently, the band is working on new material, teasing a sonic evolution that promises to push their boundaries even further.
