about

Moonparticle is a music collective put together by
Guitarist/Producer Niko Tsonev (ex-Steven Wilson, Lifesigns),
featuring an extraordinary group of musicians:

Pianist Adam Holzman (Miles Davis, Robben Ford)
Saxophonist Theo Travis ( Robert Fripp, David Gilmour)
Drummer Craig Blundell (Frost*, Steven Wilson)
Violinist Samy Bishai (Natacha Atlas, Digitonal)
Vocalist Grog Lisee (Die So Fluid, Ozzy Osbourne)

“Hurricane Esmeralda is a hard hitting album that grows on you with each listen. Bursting with the virtusosity of Prog and the sophistication of Jazz, it above all impresses with its beautifully crafted songs that take you places...”

The title ‘Hurricane Esmeralda’ was inspired by themes of inner awareness and growth, and the process of pure creation. The virtuoso level of musicianship displayed by the aforementioned musicians throughout the forty minutes of music, compliments the primary focus of the album - inspired songwriting and brave musical performances.

Recorded between January and July 2017, Moonparticle’s debut was funded by a successful PledgeMusic campaign. The recording took place in various locations - essentialy each musician adding their contribution from their own recording studio (London, Paris, New York and Los Angeles) via online file sharing. Produced and mixed by Niko Tsonev, the album was mastered by Jon Astley (Paul McCartney, Peter Gabriel, Porcupine Tree). The artwork and graphic design were conceived by digital artist Be Wilde.
