Welcome to The Blue Moon, a vintage Rock’n’Roll band from the Watford, UK (the home of Rock’n’Roll, we’re sure you’ll agree!)
The goal for 2024 was to create a set of tunes that represent the band’s ‘live show energy’, combining driving soul grooves and powerful, uplifting choruses.
To write and fund the record (in between their day jobs as teachers) the band have been playing sweaty pubs, festivals and even a few European bar tours - saving up the fees from the shows and learning from audience reactions and interactions which songs will be the hits!
Finally, the band were able to make the trip to Chem 19 studios in Glasgow to record the tracks live with Jamie Savage (Twilight Sad, King Creosote). A huge hand was given by friend, musician and composer Andy Bruce (Kathyrn Williams, Michelle Stodart) who wrote the horns, and the wonderful Jim Barne (hit musical Two Strangers Carry A Cake Across NY) on backing vocals.
2024 will see the band take this record on the road for the first time, as well as return to the studio in April.
