We Landed on the Moon! is John, Melissa, Josh, Jon and Spence. 

Long ago, they made their first album, We Landed on the Moon! and then, by dumb luck or perhaps because of the tasty astronaut ice cream they gave with each record, radio stations across the country played it. People clapped and cheered and whistled at their Baton Rouge shows (those who could whistle)- enough that they decided to go play shows for far away people in a van that ran out of freon every hundred miles or so. 

They became experts on convenience stores across the country. They sang and played and danced and drank, and learned things that you just don't learn at home- that the cops in NYC's Chinatown are surprisingly civil even if your host wants to throw a microwave out his front door at 4 am, and that there's no tougher walk than dragging your equipment across the crowded sidewalks of SXSW. They got to play music in Toronto and DC and all sorts of cities they wanted to see, and they got to do it together. 

And even more amazingly, people started showing up to sing their songs with them everywhere they went. In Dec of 2008, they released their 2nd record, These Little Wars. It was named Album of the Week by an Italian music webzine. This made the band want to make even more music, and to eat pizza.

And so they did. And somewhere over the course of it all, they found out exactly what they did best. Play loud music for people who want to listen.

We Landed on the Moon's new record "This Will Be One for the Books" is the perfect storm of 8 months of frenzied music writing, the band's energetic live show, and the blistering fun of what happens when people really enjoy making music together. Recorded in six blissful days at Fudge Studios in New Orleans, the record will be flying into your eardrums in late 2009. 

We Landed on the Moon! just finished successful shows at the CMJ Music Festival in NYC and the world renowned Voodoo Music Experience in New Orleans. Also check out their performance on Toyota Free Yr Radio. They will be on the road January through February with the toast of Champaign, IL, Elsinore.
