About

MOVING MOUNTAINS IN CONCERT:

New York post-rock quartet Moving Mountains makes a point of continually evolving their sound, but the impact of their powerful, cathartic live shows remains a constant. In concert the band creates a massive wall of tones and textures, flooring audiences with an immersive onslaught of layered guitar, driving drums, and undulating basslines. Leading the charge is frontman Gregory Dunn, a charismatic performer who effortlessly commands the stage whether he's screaming on hard-hitters like "My Life Is a Chase Dream" or crooning on more introspective tracks like "Sol Solis". The band went on hiatus in 2013 but returned with a new sound for their 2015 split EP with Prawns (violins, anyone?), and fans are dying for a chance to experience the band's rebirth in the flesh when they hit the road on tour. 

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Moving Mountains was formed in Westchester, New York in 2005 by Gregory Dunn (guitar/vocals) and Nicholas Pizzolato (drums). The pair released a self-titled demo in 2006, and in 2007 they made their full-length debut with Pneuma, which Dunn wrote and produced while still in high school. They originally intended Moving Mountains to be a studio project only, but after their debut caught on and was rereleased by Deep Elm Records they put together a full band and began playing live shows. For their 2010 sophomore album Waves the band wanted to incorporate the sound of their live performances, and the result paid off -- the record got an 85% on AbsolutePunk and drew the band out for extensive touring. Following the release of a self-titled third album in 2013 the band went on hiatus, but to true to form they returned with an overhauled sound in 2015 for a split EP with Jersey indie rockers Prawn.

    Unbelievable venue and show!

    by rgohra1 on 11/8/13Great Scott - Allston

    My fiancee and I went to see Moving Mountains at Great Scott in Allston, MA recently. For such a small bar, it was very cozy, everyone was extremely friendly and maybe 100 people turned out for the show. The sound system was superb, something I would expect from every venue we attend, but we all know that won't happen. All of the vocals were crisp and clear, you could actually hear vocalists for once something I've missed out on at a lot of shows lately. The line-up was fantastic, Caravella, This Old Ghost, and Field Mouse all performed on a spectacular level which made me pick up their music immediately after the show. Moving Mountains closed out the show with a mix of their old and new music. The set list, Greg's vocal ability, and the rest of the bands ability to command any instrument in their hands made the night memorable. There isn't a chance that I will miss their upcoming shows.
