    A dreamy neo-soul/jazz trio from Los Angeles, CA, Moonchild are an exciting new addition to Tru Thoughts, fitting in a treat on the eclectic indie’s roster. In a whirlwind three years Moonchild have self-released two albums, and collaborated or toured with highly-respected names in the soul-jazz crowd including Stevie Wonder, Jill Scott, India.Arie, Leela James and more. Attracting international tastemaker support from the likes of Gilles Peterson (BBC 6Music), WHUR-DC, KCRW and LA 102.3, the band have also found themselves being praised by a host of iconic artists including Robert Glasper, Laura Mvula, James Poyser, Jazzy Jeff, Jose James and Tyler, The Creator and The Internet. Having signed to Tru Thoughts, they are set to gain a wider audience still via an official release for their album ‘Please Rewind’ on the UK label this year.
    Amber Navran (vocals, tenor saxophone), Max Bryk (alto saxophone, flute, clarinet, keyboards) and Andris Mattson (trumpet/flugelhorn, keyboards) met in 2012 in their junior year at the University of Southern California in the Jazz Studies programme. Inspired by the respected hip hop and progressive electronic music scene in LA, the group’s sound continues to blossom as they create music influenced by the likes of J Dilla, Flying Lotus and D’Angelo - all of whom have been prevalent in broadening the groups musical horizons over the years, leading up to the production of their 2015 release - ‘Please Rewind’.

    So I'm in the work truck, listening to the local jazz station. But because so much of it just filler music with little soul, I tend to tune it out and just let it be background music. Then THIS came on and I was an INSTANT fan. Great stuff and I really hope they have a long and successful career! 30 thumbs up!!

    tired but searching for the answers
    tying myself down with all I find
    still purpose circles like a dancer
    but in my mind
    my spirit is with the breeze
    far from the things I used to know
    wild and free
    using the truth to let go
    serenity rests in me
    far from the things I used to know
    I found the strength to let it show
    smile cause I know that it's okay
    I've got this love to help me slip away
    far from all the worry that defines you
    to live in truth
    the truth is in love
    in love there's a light
    the truth is in love
    there's love where it's right
    2x
    my spirit is with the breeze
    far from the things I used to know
    wild and free
    using the truth to let go
    serenity rests in me
    far from the things I used to know
    I found the strength to let it show

    Still one of my absolute favorite songs of one of my absolute favorite groups! The song has everything from great arrangements, grooving music, and perfect vocals. Watching this video for the umpteenth time, I always thought Amber is very pretty, but looking at it now it's her beautiful spirit. She has a slight smile almost always, even while she sings. That happiness makes her look that much more beautiful - not just physically but spiritually and emotionally as well.
