Don’t fear, Lunar Rising are still around! After line-up changes we are currently exploring a new direction but aim to keep the atmosphere and folky elements to our sound. We will be experimenting with introducing new sounds and am looking into how to make performances really one-of-a-kind. In the meantime you can check out guitarist/songwriter Jay Harris’ own website to see how he is getting on with Lunar Rising and other various projects. Click here!

Dressed to the Nines
Appearances are everything, or so they say. And as you can see we are not adverse to donning our Sunday best and smiling for the camera.
Last month we ventured out to a serene location, complete with it’s own bandstand to capture our essence by means of photographer Lesley Flower. The pick of the bunch can be seen in our gallery, so why not head over there now and peruse at your leisure?
Some New Songs…
Don your top hats and tailcoats, Lunar Rising will be setting alight Nambucca on Holloway Road this Thursday (tomorrow) at 9pm (more details in previous post below).
The Lunar Rising set-list is soon to feature one of our newest songs entitled Way We Climb. Should you lack the requisite apparel for gig-attendance, fear not, fortunately there is a way around this mortal dilemma: the ‘play’ button below awaits to deliver you from your Socratic ignorance, by giving you early access to an acoustic (and un-named at time of recording…) version of this new song that was recorded just last weekend. The track is also downloadable should you prefer to save it for pudding.
Way We Climb‘s elder sister Embrace, miraculously born just a few weeks prior to her sibling, and originally only baby-sat by members of our privileged Lunar Rising community, is now also available below. The musical equivalent of an all day hugathon, Embrace also features in our new set, which will be showcased on Thursday.

Pictures of our 229 Club gig!
Hi All!
If you missed our last gig at 229 Club and are wondering what actually went on, check out our gallery pictures that were taken by Lesley Flower. If you did make it and want to reminisce over a top night, there are some cool almost-bands-eye-view shots of the gig… maybe you can spot your face in the crowd…? Ok, it’s a little dark but give it a go…
