“The Half Moon Band is amazing! They are such great entertainers and musicians. Speaking of the music, one of my favorite things about the band is the wide scope of their sets and their ability to skillfully perform songs across different genres and time periods. Highly recommend you attend one of their performances, you’ll soon be coming back and inviting your family and friends to join you.”

“When I first planned on seeing The Half Moon Band at the Wine Room in Moss Beach, I was very excited to hear a local jazz band. The Half Moon Band did not disappoint. They deftly perform across the spectrum of jazz standards, rock & pop. This group was a surprising collection of talent and professionalism for me to listen to and enjoy immensely. If you have the chance to see this band, make sure you do! Wonderful entertainment!”
