The Soft Moon is a San Francisco based neo Post-Punk band composed of Luis Vasquez (singer/songwriter/guitar/synthesizers), Justin Anastasi (bass), Damon Way (synthesizers), and Ron Robinson (visuals). Keven Tecon joined the band as a drummer in early 2012. As purveyors of the emerging Post-Apocalyptic sound, The Soft Moon has taken cues from early Synthpunk/Post-Punk bands such as Chrome, Suicide, Danse Society, and The Units.
The Soft Moon was founded by Luis Vasquez as solo project in 2009. He released two singles, Breathe the Fire and Parallels, while working on his debut Self Titled LP. Prior to the release of the LP, Vasquez directed his energy into building a band around his project with the aim to deliver a full sensory experience within the context of live performance.
