Luna was a New York band formed in 1991 by singer/guitarist Dean Wareham after the breakup of Galaxie 500. The band made seven studio albums before disbanding in 2005. After a ten-year break, they reunited and toured in 2015, and in 2017 released a new LP — A Sentimental Education and an EP of instrumentals — A Place of Greater Safety.

Other recent reissues include a deluxe 2xLP version of their classic Penthouse album (on Rhino) and another 2xLP set Lunafied that collects all the covers the band recorded in the 1990s.

Now scattered around the country (Los Angeles, New York and Austin) the band retains the same lineup that operated from 1999 to 2005: Dean Wareham on vocals/guitar, his wife Britta Phillips on bass, Sean Eden on guitar, and Lee Wall on drums.

    I’ve been a fan of Luna for 20 years, and I’ve never seen them live. I don’t even like going out at night, but I would do it for this.

    What a killer band. Would love to see them live

    I’ve followed Luna ever since the folding of the amazing Galaxy 500! I’d love to see them live in 2023!

    Used to see them a lot, but not since reformation, would love to go.

    I love husband and wife musicians.

    Because it’s currently the closest I will get to actually having 23 Minutes in Brussels!

    Luna shows are always fantastic, and Aladdin is a perfect spot to see them. Just what I need in the new year.

    I also loved Dean and Britta’s recent appearance in “White Noise.”

    Because I love that song California (All the Way) and thought this great band was no more. I’ll have those tickets, please and thank you!

    My partner’s and my anniversary is that weekend! We love Dean and Britta and all their assorted projects. My partner has never seen Dean Wareham live! We rarely leave the house during the pandemic but I know we would have a blast at this.

      It’s true, I’m lazy, but I’d get out for this one!
