Moon Taxi

Overview

For the members of Moon Taxi, their third album, Mountains Beaches Cities, represents the idea of exploration - searching both the world and themselves for new experiences. The Nashville rock group, who had honed in on a notably compelling aesthetic with their previous album Cabaret, focused on extending the sonic landscape they’d created in earlier recordings, but this time around they amp up the speed and turn up the volume – creating an overall bigger sound.  Each song on the album, and even the album title, generates its own story and imagery, but all come back to that idea of exploration and searching.  "We made a conscious effort with the last record to write meaningful songs and produce them in an exciting way,” Trevor says. "That is still the ultimate goal. We strive to produce something that will outlast us as a band. I can see this record reaching an even broader range of people because the song themes are universal. ”
