We were captivated by the infectious catchy appeal of Hello Moon, the new single from Paul Cook & The Chronicles. The artist beautifully blends an influence of indie pop and indie folk. The result is a true crossover smash, one that can infect fans of both scenes equally.
Melodically, Hello Moon gets under your skin. It recalls an affect that broke The Shins, but The Chronicles adapt that influence with a catchy groove known to recent pop breakthroughs. From Sufjan Stevens to Dayglow, Hello Moon should connect with a wide array of indie fans.
