Latest signings to Acid Jazz, The Moons come with an authentic rock pedigree. Fronted by Paul Weller’s keyboard player Andy Crofts and also featuring Chris Ketley from The Rakes, the band craft soulful slices of a classic English take on rock. Drawing from influences like XTC, The La’s and The Specials - the record is far from a retro romp but sits comfortably alongside contemporary groups like The Coral, The Zutons and The Bees. The Moons came to the attention of the label after Eddie Piller picked up their self financed 45 ‘Don’t Go Changing’ for his award-winning radio show on Q earlier this year. He encouraged the band to go in and record an album, and so The Moons spent a month in Paul Weller’s Black Barn studios working on their debut 'Life On Earth'.
