The Lunar Effect were formed in London in 2017 by brothers Jon and Dan Jefford and later completed by vocalist Josh Neuwford, bassist Brett Halsey, and eventually second guitarist Mark Fuller. Since their arrival on the scene, they’ve carved out a reputation for crafting music that feels both familiar and original - a modern echo of grunge-soaked ’70s rock, fuzzed-out blues, and melancholic British soul.
Following the underground success of 2019’sCalm Before the Calm, the band signed withSvart Recordsand released the critically praised sophomore albumSounds of Green & Bluein 2024. After touring the album across the UK and Europe, they set their sights on album three, their most ambitious work to date.Fortune’s Always Hidinglands in October 2025; a brooding journey through loss, memory, and the weight of time. It marks a new era for the band - deeper, stranger, and more soul-baring than ever.
