Los Angeles trio Lo Moon have released the video for new single "Real Love," directed by the legendary Sophie Muller, who has collaborated with everyone from Beyonce to Coldplay. Of the video, Muller says: "It was a pleasure getting to work with Lo Moon. The song really seized my imagination and we had a lot of fun conjuring this dream world on the ice."

The band adds, "The Real Love video combines my two life long loves. Skating and Music. We talked about doing a video on ice while we were making the album and Sophie got really excited about it after hearing the song. She's always been one of our favorite directors and it was absolutely amazing working with her."

Lo Moon's anticipated self-titled debut album is set for release on Columbia Records onFebruary 23, 2018. The album - produced by Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie) andFrancois Tetaz (Gotye) - features previously released songs "Loveless," "This Is It,"and "Thorns," as well as guest turns by The War On Drugs' Adam Granduciel and Charlie Hall. Pre-order the album here.

Last week, Lo Moon made their television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live, playing album opener "This Is It." Watch the performance here. The band also performed "Loveless" - watch here.

Music is the universal language for the group of people who all come from vastly different corners of the earth that comprise Lo Moon. Singer/guitarist Matt Lowell is from Long Island, bassist Crisanta Baker from Denver, and guitarist Samuel Stewart from London; Los Angeles was their eventual meeting place. And from this meeting place has come something astounding:  Lo Moon - a dark, luscious collection of songs full of crescendo rock and sparkling electronics - spans the breadth of human highs and lows, bridging a gap between soft experimental rock and atmospheric electronic pop. The record - a cool, dark, meditative exploration of bittersweet sadness and cathartic joy - could sit as happily among the likes of The XX as it could Talk Talk, Depeche Mode, early Coldplay, or the cinematic scope of Sigur Ros.

Lo Moon made themselves at home on the road throughout last year - opening for Phoenix, The War On Drugs, London Grammar, Glass Animals, Ride, and more - and 2018 sees them rapidly becoming one of the best new live bands to emerge over the last few years. Indeed, the New York Times' esteemed music critic Jon Pareles called them one of the Top 10 artists he saw at Governor's Ball 2017, alongside the likes of Lorde and Chance The Rapper.
