New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Milky Chance - fresh off the release of their critically acclaimed new album Mind The Moon - announce an extensive North American tour, with 20+ headlining dates in Los Angeles, Nashville, Seattle, Atlanta, and more. See full dates below.
While childhood friends Phillipp Dausch and
Clemens Rehbein's past two albums have seen them take their blend of folk, electronic, hip-hop, world music, and chillout across continents and onto Fallon, Kimmel, and Conan, Mind The Moon, the band's third album, is "frothing with greatness" (KUTX). It's not only an impressive example of their free-flowing, eclectic songwriting, but pushes their sound into new places as they "embody new twists on the old concept of world music" (NPR Music). The album has received critical praise from NPR Music, American Songwriter, and many more — see press notices below.

Praise For MInd The Moon
"They embody new twists on the old concept of world music" — NPR Music
"Takes great leaps and lands in completely unexpected, but creatively rich, territory." — American Songwriter
"Mind the Moon's dozen songs find
Milky Chance frothing with greatness and lathering with high-calibre collaborators." - KUTX
"Mind the Moon is a deeper exploration of Philipp Dausch and Clemens Rehbein's unique instrumental arrangements and effervescent vocals." - Earmilk
Aesthetically, the yearning reggae, Afro-pop, and Latin vibes evoke the classic '80s style of artists like
Sting and
Peter Gabriel...With Mind the Moon,
Milky Chance offer a moon cycle's worth of sustained twilight-hour grooves." - AllMusic
