Moonchild is a soul and new-school jazz trio hailing from Los Angeles, California. Composed of Amber Navran (vocals, tenor saxophone, flute), Andris Mattson (trumpet, flugelhorn, keyboards, production), and Max Bryk (alto saxophone, clarinet, keyboards), the group has seduced audiences with their blend of soulful melodies, lush harmonies, and chill R&B vibes since their formation in 2012. Moonchild's music is a vibrant tapestry of Neo-Soul and Jazz elements, underpinned by a laid-back groove that invites listeners into a world of introspective lyricism and complex musicality.

Following their debut with the album "Be Free," their subsequent releases have shown a steady evolution in the group's sound and artistic depth. With "Little Ghost," Moonchild continued to refine their distinctive style, laying down breezy tracks that are rich in texture and filled with emotional resonance. The album, along with its instrumental version, showed the band's commitment to creating works that stand strong both melodically and compositionally. "Starfruit," the most recent release at the time of this writing, showcases the group's maturation and diversity, blending the trio's signature harmony-rich arrangements with features from high-caliber artists. The array of acoustic versions of their songs, such as "The Truth" and "Money," offer a stripped-back and intimate take on their music, demonstrating the enduring strength of Moonchild's songwriting and their ability to captivate both through elaborate production and simple acoustics.
