The sound and visions of Moonlight Breakfast

Moonlight Breakfast is certainly a must-see band. Their original approach to creating music is based on mixing together different ingredients – Electro, Nu-Jazz, Swing, and Balkan Beat. And the result is what you can expect from a talented mixologist – a cocktail with an interesting and unique taste that will make you want to dance and feel happy.
The trademark of this groups’ shows are the conceptual visuals that are fully synchronized with their music, representing the band’s style and turning them into a unique experience. Their first ever show was in their native country, Bucharest when they were the warm-up show for 35,000 people before Jamiroquai.  It was a great start to their career. At the moment, Moonlight Breakfast has two successful albums under their belt and a lot of gigs all over the world, helping them to form a strong fan base.
The band is in a really good shape, focused on the future and has a lot of creative plans, helping them to have fun from the thing they enjoy most of all in life – making music. Having gone through a few changes, the band is currently a trio, with lead singer and frontwoman Christie, her husband and the main mastermind of this musical engine, Bazooka, on drums, keys and clarinet, and Adita on keys, guitar and sampler.
After a really busy summer full of shows all over Europe and their first US tour, Moonlight Breakfast frontwoman Christie finally found time for an interview with all-andorra.com in which she talked about her most memorable shows, the band’s musical roots and inspirations, future plans and their view on the possibility of performing in Andorra someday.

It seems like you had a busy summer with many gigs! And not only this summer – you are touring regularly and doing different types of gigs – big festivals and cozy musical clubs. What kind of shows do you enjoy most of all?
Yes, we’ve been keeping busy. We love performing so we have a lot of fun every time we’re on stage. Performing has been a memorable experience since the very beginning. Our first show was opening for Jamiroquai in front of 35,000 people. Though memorable, we weren’t really able to enjoy it that much since we were really stressed out. It was my first show ever so I was really nervous. I remember I couldn’t even sit up straight for the 2 hours in-between sound check and stage time.
