Half Moon Run

Biography

Emotional, expansive, and ethereal, Montreal-based indie rockers Half Moon Run blend the icy alt-pop atmospherics of bands like Radiohead and Alt-J with the richly detailed, harmony-laden modern folk of Fleet Foxes. Formed in 2010 around the talents of vocalists and multi-instrumentalists Devon Portielje, Conner Molander, Dylan Phillips, and Isaac Symonds, the Canadian quartet released their debut, the Indica Records-issued long player Dark Eyes in 2012. Propelled by the hit single "Full Circle," the album was released internationally the following year, and peaked at number 19 on the Canadian rock/alternative chart. Sun Leads Me On, the band's sophomore studio long player, followed in 2015 and featured the hit single "Trust". ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
