Today Chicago art rock band Friend Of A Friend shares the final single, “Moonlight” from their forthcoming 3rd LP, Desire!. Friend Of A Friend will tour the US this May, and they’ve just been added to the Treefort Festival in Boise where they will play Neurolux this Friday 3/28.
The band offers some context for “Moonlight”:
“Forgotten mandalas that spin and light up in colorful neon bursts under a glittering skyline and where everyone feels safe and loved. The drum track is also an iPhone recording from Jess. Desire ad infinitum.” -Friend Of A Friend
Few albums evoke a sense of place as vividly as Desire!, the third offering from Friend of a Friend. The duo—Claire Molek and Jason Savsani—craft music that feels cinematic and immersive, threading themes of yearning, transformation, and resilience through a palette of lush synths, tactile rhythms, and haunting vocals. Recorded in a sprawling Victorian mansion in rural Illinois, with a history steeped in spiritualism and the paranormal, Desire! not only embodies the environment where it was created but also reflects the duo’s evolution as musicians and sonic architects.
