Who knew that rock ‘n’ roll could be so exhilarating and musically diverse? A half-English 4-piece band, hidden away in the unlikely habitat of Switzerland, The Hillbilly Moon Explosion have honed their craft without distraction for many years. Searching for the right sound they’ve previously recorded in San Diego, Camden and Tooting, but for their latest album they went back to their local Swiss studio, the place where they made their first rockabilly recordings and where they had more time to get the sounds they wanted. As a result With Monsters and Gods is certainly their best release to date.
The band have become quite an online and vinyl phenomenon with more than 13 million Youtube views of the video for Tattoos of My Love for Evermore. Now at full creative tilt, Hillbilly Moon Explosion are on tour to promote their album. Following appearances at London’s Borderline and the Cathedral Quarter festival in Belfast they will finally reach Enniskillen, a place, we are told, that is close to their hearts!
