NBX presents Minor Moon at New Buffalo Marina

Minor Moon is the songwriting and bandleading vehicle for Chicago's Sam Cantor. Adored for feel-good indie/country/alt-rock, the band weaves equal parts warmth, grit, and psychedelia over which his gentle lyricism rides. Cantor's evocative storytelling, conveyed via lush harmonies and rich instrumentation, shapes music both timeless and contemporary. Fresh off a US tour promoting their new album, The Light Up Waltz, the band has been celebrated as 'sharp, sublime, and irresistible' (PopMatters) and for Cantor's 'soothing, sure-footed tenderness' (Chicago Reader).

Join us and Minor Moon for a beautiful, peak-summer evening on the waterfront!
