Moon Duo announce new album 'Stars Are The Light'

Following on from last year's standalone singles 'Jukebox Babe' and 'No Fun', Moon Duo have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'Stars Are The Light' will become the pair's seventh LP to date, is being previewed by the newly-unveiled disco-inspired title-track, and is set to be released on the 27th September via Sacred Bones.

Speaking about their embrace of a new disco sound, the band's Sanae Yamada said, “It’s something we hadn’t referenced in our music before, but its core concepts really align with what we were circling around as we made the album. Disco is dance music, first and foremost, and we were digging our way into the idea of this endless dance of bodies in nature. We were also very inspired by the space and community of a disco – a space of free self-expression through dance, fashion, and mode of being; where everyone was welcome, diversity was celebrated, and identity could be fluid; where the life force that animates each of us differently could flower.”
