Sound Series: Luna

We welcome back the highly influential indie rock band, Luna, for a special retrospective set, playing songs across their catalogue. Formed in 1991 by singer/guitarist Dean Wareham, after parting ways with his first band, Galaxie 500, Luna made seven studio albums before disbanding in 2005. The band reunited and toured in 2015, and in 2017 released a new LP, "A Sentimental Education" and an EP of instrumentals, "A Place of Greater Safety". Rhino also recently re-issued their classic "Penthouse" (1995) album as a double LP. The band’s line-up has remained the same since 1999: Dean Wareham on vocals/guitar, Britta Phillips on bass, Sean Eden on guitar and Lee Wall on drums. In 2008, we premiered "13 Most Beautiful: Songs for Andy Warhol’s Screen Tests" featuring music by Dean & Britta, which has toured internationally with over 100 performances.
