The band’s upcoming debut album, “Take A Trip” is incomparably innovative, demonstrating their versatile range and commitment to their authenticity.

Whether under the stars at a festival or a show at an intimate venue, MoonShroom continues to inspire and ignite the live music scene, one show at a time.

==================

The potluck is optional, but is a great chance to connect others in the audience and maybe even share a meal with the artist. It also helps ensure the artist isn't having to have a meal from a gas station. We'll provide the plates, bowls, silverware, napkins, and, if you need it, serving spoons. Feel free to bring anything you'd like--an entrée, appetizer, dessert, or drink to share. Bring something you will enjoy eating, because if you enjoy it it is likely others will as well.
