Montreal’s Half Moon Run have this special way of stealing your heart in just three minutes. The trio does it yet again with their new single, “Alco”.
“Alco” is the second single released from their upcoming record, SALT, set to be released on June 2nd via BMG, the band’s new record label. They will also be headlining a North American tour throughout the fall and winter - see full dates below.
Band member, Conner Molander explains, “Devon took a ukulele on a trip to Thailand in 2012. When he got back to Montreal, he played the opening riff of 'Alco' for us - and we loved it! We started developing the song around that time, but kept running into roadblocks with the arrangement. It's such a pleasure now to feel like we finally cracked the code after all these years. Personally I love the elven textures that decorate this recording - it feels mystical!"
