American rock band Lo Moon, consisting of Matt Lowell (guitar/vocals), Crisanta Baker (synth/bass/samples), Sam Stewart (guitar) and Sterling Laws (drums), has announced that their third studio album “I Wish You Way More Than Luck” will be released on April 5, 2024.
It is their first album in two years since the 2022 album “A Modern Life” and comprises a 10-track, produced by Mike Davis, with Alan Moulder on mixing duties.
The band shared on social media, “We are so excited to announce our third album 'I Wish You Way More Than Luck' will be released on April 5th. We love this album and we will be sure to tell you so much more about it in the coming weeks and months. We can't wait to see where this record takes us, and we look forward to seeing you all again very soon.”
From the album, the band released two new songs “Water” and “Connecticut” on February 6, 2024.
Both songs were written by Crisanta Grace Pearl Baker, Matt Frank Lowell, Samuel Joseph Hurricane Stewart, and Sterling Mitchell Laws. Produced by Produced by Lo Moon and Mike Davis.
“Water” is accompanied by the Saoli Nash-directed music video.- The band lead singer Matt Lowell said of “Water” in a statement, “Since all the songs on our new album were inspired by the moment I found my artistic voice as a teenager, I started Water with the riff on an acoustic guitar. It really reminded me of something I might play when I was sixteen. It felt whimsical and nostalgic and when the band jumped in it felt like refreshing new ground for us. A couple days before the song appeared I had re-read David Foster Wallace's transcript of a commencement speech he gave at Kenyon College in 2005. It had a much more profound effect on me from the first time I read it, and I thought the last line of the speech I Wish You Way More Than Luck could work perfectly within the musical framework. In some ways the song felt like it came to us, it's hard to explain when those things happen, but we're happy it did.”
