Many of you have heard of Wolf Parade, many of you have heard of Sunset Rubdown, and likely many of you have heard of Swan Lake.

Moonface is a band-as-moving-target situation, with an ever-shifting lineup of musicians backing the singular talents of Canada’s Krug, with this incarnation featuring the grayscale complexities of the Finnish instrumental outfit Siinai.
