Niagara Moon

Music Genre: 
Band Description: 

Niagara Moon is Thomas Erwin + other collaborators, most notably his singing partner Huimin Wan.  
Specializing in mellow, lushly produced indie-pop songs that combine the intricate melodies of Pet Sounds and Sgt. Peppers with the 21st century style of artists like Of Montreal and Belle & Sebastian, Niagara Moon's sound is often whimsical, sardonic, and mildly psychedelic.  When performing live, Thomas and Huimin employ a simpler, stripped-back sound - singing harmonies together over acoustic & electric piano.
