Biography

London based Moonshot (Daniel Kent and Richard Wolfe) combine dark, urban beats with pop melodies to create songs that are challenging yet accessible. Blending the pop sensibilities of 80s electronic bands with the Bristol led trip hop pioneers of the 90s, Moonshot occupy a unique and relevant space in the current music scene.

New LP No Sign of Morning continues the bands prolific output which has produced five albums and two EPs since 2001. Consisting of ten original tracks, the album blends strong atmospheres and narratives to create stories of urban life both past and present. Sometimes personal, sometimes topical, No Sign of Morning is a snapshot of English life in the early part of the 21st century.

Moonshot’s influences include bands such as Pet Shop Boys, Massive Attack, Depeche Mode and Portishead as well as artists as diverse as Pink Floyd and Tori Amos.
