Before releasing any material Half Moon Run wowed audiences throughout Montreal, Canada with their raw talent and rich textures with select appearances at Salsa Rossa and M for Montreal festival. The band released their full-length debut album “Dark Eyes” on March 27, 2012 which was co-produced by Daniel Lagaće and Mygel Asselin. The album released on Indica Records revealed the band’s talent for melodic and melancholic harmonies in a similar ilk to Fleet Foxes without the hardy folk sound, mixing in alt-pop atmospherics. “Call Me in the Afternoon” was the band’s highest performing single released in 2013 which peaked at No. 19 in the Canadian Alternative chart.

Following the release, the band received international acclaim and toured extensively, joining the worldwide festival circuit playing SXSW festival, Osgeaga festival, Canadian Music Week, Glastonbury Festival 2013.
