Moonbabies - The Orange Billboard 10th Anniversary Edition

It's almost here.  The new Moonbabies LP "Wizard on the Beach" drops on April 28th.   From what I've heard, the new album projects this blog-favorite duo into a new blissed-out musical orbit.  Its the Moonbabies -  so there are the melodies galore and even as the band re-imagines and updates their sound within a modern context.    It relevant to point out that the Moonbabies haven't released a proper album for 8 years - so no surprise that there have been some shifts in the what the band has been listening to.

In anticipation for the new release, coleader Ola Frick has given me permission to post a few tracks from the rare 10 year anniversary edition of the Moonbabies's sophomore release "The Orange Billboard".   The tracks here are part of special purpose cassette given away to three lucky fans. There are some unreleased songs but there are also a number of radically remixed and redone tunes well known to fans.    Check these out and get ready for the new album due out next month:

1 Intro
2 Field trip USA (Outtake)
3 Sun AM (Demo)
4 In the Banshees
5 Sway
6 Hanky Panky Nohow
7 Loom
8 Crispin Glover (Outtake)
9 Day Breaks

12 Outro
