Welcome to WEDNESDAY, the day when poets vanish. And welcome too to the amazing retro-styled site for Daymoon's new retro-styled album, THE POET WHO VANISHED ON WEDNESDAY.

The story so far: sadly, our drummer/keyboarder/producer André Marques left us in late 2021, plunging Daymoon into a gaping black hole. Thus bereft, we decided to tip-toe around the event horizon of this, and concocted an album comprising absolutely and recklessly no drums. On top of that, all of the album is based loosely around the humdrum idea of being stuck forever inside a glum Wednesday. But...

...on a more exciting note, we are extraordinarily happy to welcome back Jeff Markham! Jeff featured on vocals on our album Fabric of Space Divine, but is now at the masterly helm of a variety of keyboards plus a multitude of compositional tasks. Mind you, the compositions and arrangements on this album are now much more band-based than anything Daymoon has ever done in the past, with every single musician weighing in very much equally. We are also proud beyond words to have had two extraodinary guests on board: Courtney Swain (of Bent Knee fame) on Real Diehl, and Ed McGlauglin on upright bass on The Healing.
 
Alright, so go now and pick a track on the left to hear and read about what we've got for you.
 
Goodie. So you like our music? Thing is, we finance our albums out of our own pockets, and meagre pcokets they are, so any help to help Daymoon produce future lunacies is greatly appreciated and veritably needed. So if you want more Daymoon audiophony, go and purchase this or any other album of ours, or even individual tracks, by selecting SHOP on the left to go to our Bandcamp page, and aid and abet us.

Thank you for being a brave music lover of stuff that isn't from the darkening US
