    After spending the fall touring alongside Patrick Watson and Metric, HALF MOON RUN prepares for their return to Montreal.

    November 20th 2012

    Seven months after the release of their first album, DARK EYES, the Montreal phenomenon Half Moon Run continues to grow. Initially spotted by Metric when the two groups shared the stage at the Festival d'été de Québec last July, Half Moon Run signed a contract with the Paradigm Agency (Coldplay, Jason Mraz, MGMT) and joined Metric on their massive U.S. tour. For a month and a half, the trio played in crowded rooms - for 2000 to 5000 people - in addition to sharing the stage with the impeccable Lou Reed (Velvet Underground), at Radio City Music Hall in New York. They were subsequently invited by Patrick Watson as the opening act for his tour in the United States and Europe. The group also performed at festivals in France and Iceland and will be heading off to tour Australian festivals in December 2012.
