Debut album by new indie-supergroup Summer Moon Press coverage on nme.com, rollingstone.com, stereogum.com Feature on NBC’s “Last Call” TV show around album release Press hired in US, UK, France, Germany
“‘With You Tonight’ sounds like the quartet have been sitting by azure seas, sipping cocktails from coconut shells. There are hints of New Order to its electro-funk undertones, alongside the sunny, trebly guitars of Men At Work’s ‘Down Under’ – an odd, but brilliant, combination.” NME
“… upbeat, danceable tracks with strong basslines and a slightly futuristic-meets-post punk vibe.” Vice
The Strokes bassist Nikolai Fraiture takes a turn as front man for the “underground supergroup” (NME) Summer Moon, who will be releasing its debut album “With You Tonight” in spring 2017.
The single “With You Tonight” triggered so much excitement and buzz around Fraiture’s new band that it was eventually chosen as a “track of the week” by the NME and was featured as the soundtrack for Alexa Chung’s collaboration with AG Jeans.
Fraiture will be joined by Stephen Perkins (Jane’s Addiction) on drums, Camila Grey (Uh Huh Her) on keys / vocals, and Noah Harmon (The Airborne Toxic Event) on guitar, as the band played a series of live shows in Los Angeles in September, to mark the single’s release. Summer Moon has already managed to notch up acclaimed performances in Fraiture’s native NYC, as well as playing showcases at SXSW, and opening for Father John Misty at the prestigious Summerstage Festival in Central Park.

New studio album by rapper and poet Watsky Watsky’s early career as a poet has impacted everything he’s done since. Whether emotionally raw or subversively comedic, his latest book „How to Ruin Everything“ is lyrically gymnastic or narrative-based, the emphasis has always charted #10 on NY Times bestseller list been on the words. After winning the National Youth Poetry Huge social media following Slam at the Apollo Theater and appearing on the final season of Russell Simmons’ Def Poetry on HBO, he honed his stagecraft performing on nearly two hundred college campuses. At every turn, Watsky has refused to be pigeonholed, following up his speed rap success with 2013 LP Cardboard Castles, an eccentric ode to creativity, and 2014’s Anderson. Paak- produced All You Can Do. After a hiatus to work on new material, Watsky pivots again, this time to prose, returning simultaneously with the essay collection How To Ruin Everything, published by Plume/Penguin-Random House, of which Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda writes, “funny, subversive […] you find yourself nodding your head in wonder and recognition,” and Watsky’s most ambitious album yet—Times Infinity—executive produced by early supporter Russell Simmons, co-produced by longtime collaborator Kush Mody, with additional production by Anderson .Paak and contributions from 21 Pilots drummer Josh Dun.
