COMANCHE MOON IS A ROOTS-ROCK, ALT-COUNTRY, “TEXICANA” BAND FROM AMARILLO, TEXAS
Rooted in tradition but driven to push the limits, folk-rock and Americana band Comanche Moon brings “a forward-thinking approach to country rock.” Their music lays out an expansive soundscapes that convey the desolation and toughness of the band’s native Texas Panhandle and often slip effortlessly into upbeat rock and roll. “It’s a wide sound coming from Comanche Moon, stoking the imagination.” (Saving Country Music, Nov. 2018).
Born into Texas cattle ranching families, the band’s founding members, Mark Erickson and Chandler Sidwell, grew up steeped traditions of cowboy folk music and storytelling. Even so, “it’s not as though [this folk-based approach] hinders Comanche Moon’s spacious sound.” (Wide Open Country, Aug. 2018). In their teenage years, Erickson & Sidwell discovered rock and roll and consumed the music of 60s and 70s British and American rock bands that were taking traditional American blues and country and driving them through guitar amps at high volume. These influences are reflected in the band’s sound. The music is “a mix of both country and rock, but with neither impinging on the other.” (Saving Country Music).
