Masterful indie folk-pop trio Moonrise Nation will release their debut album, Glamour Child, July 28 on Zinc Records, a label formed by Bobby Z of Prince's band, The Revolution. Today, the trio debuted the chillingly beautiful track "Eye to Eye" with Ghettoblaster. The track swells with irresistible pop hooks, catchy vocal harmonies and sincere emotion as the lyrics reflect on the shadow of a once impassioned relationship. Ethereal piano, booming drums, and haunting vocals beg the question, "Can I miss you yet?"
The trio previously released title track "Glamour Child," (850k+ Spotify streams) which was inspired by a piece of art created by Arden and Eva's grandmother, which they used for the album cover. Hailing from Oak Park, Illinois, songwriting and vocal duties are equally shared between guitarist Emma McCall, keyboardist Arden Baldinger, and cellist Eva Baldinger the latter two of which are sisters. Their storytelling is crafted from a very personal place, deftly sculpted into a layered, universal experience. Produced by Stephen Shirk (Alabama Shakes, Delta Spirit), the album captures the vertiginous,
Millennial high-lows of self-confidence and doubt, happiness and practicality, innocence and reality, feminist strength and vulnerability.
The band will hit the road this summer, serving up their unique, dynamic mix of swoony delicacy and anthemic pop peaks to audiences across the country. Be sure to catch Moonrise Nation live in a city near you and stay tuned for more news on their forthcoming album Glamour Child coming soon.
