Formed in 2010 in Reno, NV, the five members of Moondog Matinee quickly discovered a chemistry in songwriting that would culminate in their 2011 debut album, Vacancy at the Wonder Lodge. By that summer, they were touring the west coast and gaining recognition as a must-see live act by both recurring and new fans alike. In 2013 they were selected as a Red Bull Sound Select artist and were asked to perform at the inaugural Life is Beautiful music festival in downtown Las Vegas. With their second album, Carry Me, Rosie, recently released, Moondog Matinee is seeking to take their throwback sound and their high energy performances to a much larger audience.
