Sonic Moonlighters’ as of yet unreleased debut album ‘Illusions and Reality’ offers its own unique brand of melodic, guitar-driven rock. The sound sits somewhere between classic rock and alternative rock, infused with the raw spirit and harmonic dialect of the blues: rooted in a rich musical tradition, but never confined to one particular genre.
The album offers four mid-tempo rock songs complemented by two ballads and two expressive bluesy instrumentals. Firm and groove-led, the rhythm section keeps the songs on the album moving and grounded. The straight ahead vocals provide a clear melodic core for the songs, while the guitar opens up a more expansive and emotionally charged dimension. The riffs and solos aren’t just added flourishes; they’re an integral and distinctive part of the songs‘ story telling. They add a definite edge and musical tension to the otherwise accessible songs.
In this press kit we present three singles that will be released between 13 November and 1 January. We would love to get reviews for our songs, get heard on play list and get some radio airplay on Rock oriented stations and possibly work towards finding a record company who believes in this kind music and is willing to publish and promote it.
We're a 3 piece rock band from the Amsterdam area who create our own brand of guitar-driven alternative blues rock, based around a strong groove and simple vocal melodies that we enhance with riffs,instrumental interludes and expressive solo's.
