Moonwood

Moonwood is a psychedelic space-rock band based in Toronto. They are influenced by Krautrock and classic ‘70s heavy psych bands, dub, Afro-beat, Middle-Eastern tonalities, and free-jazz expression. Moonwood began in 2007 as the solo project of psychedelic-folk guitarist Jakob Rehlinger, but has since expanded to a four-piece combo headed by Jacqueline Noire on synth and lead vocals. Luca Capone and Matthew Fava fill out the line-up on drums and bass guitar, respectively. They are currently putting the finishing touches on a new LP, Desert Ghosts, slated for summer release jointly on Pleasence Records/Arachnidiscs Recordings, a follow-up to the 2012 cassette, Trans Martian Express.
