Moon Music
Native Loudoun County trio, Moon Music, forged a partnership almost a decade ago, with a signature nuanced three-part harmony vocal sound, backed by beautiful piano, and acoustic guitar. Jim Moon, acclaimed pianist and guitarist had been playing in classic rock band, Mr. Jimmy, alongside fellow musician, Mary Alyce. The two then joined forces again, along with Deb Dalby, singer and percussionist, to complete the Moon Music trio. Moon Music is known for their original arrangements, of “unlikely covers” for a vocal trio - songs by Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, U2 and many more.
When Jim Moon invited two friends to his studio one afternoon to "woodshed" some harmonies, he had no notion of what might happen. Mary Alyce Wicks and Debra Dalby brought different musical backgrounds and singing styles to the studio that day. Yet their voices, each distinct on their own, blended with such ease, grace and style. It seemed too good to be true -- beautiful voices, ringing harmonies -- and everyone got along! Moon Music was born in an instant!

He received the album “Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs” by Derek & The Dominoes, where he maintains, “that’s where I learned all my licks”.

Shane Gamble
​
Building on the success of his single “Beautiful Work,” which cracked the Top 40 on the Billboard charts, Maryland-based singer/songwriter Shane Gamble is set to release 12 new songs on his label, Rt. 50 Music, in 2025. The album, which is yet to be titled, features the singles “My Sweet Louise”, “Headlights Through the Smoke”, and “She Calls Me Baby”, which have been pre-released for online streaming only. “This captures where I am as an artist and storyteller, I can’t wait to put the whole collection of songs out there!”
Sonically speaking, these new recordings sound bigger than anything Gamble has done in the past; the guitars grind, and the lyrics take an outsider view on how the modern country business operates. “I wanted to be real and candid,” says Shane. “there is a place for honest storytelling-based music, especially today when some music feels crafted with commerce in mind.”
Shane has enjoyed the success of his debut album and the Top 10 single “Turn My Way,” a pop/country tune that’s punchy and poignant. Thanks to the groundbreaking SiriusXM country music channel, The Highway, Shane was able to crash the party as an independent artist, garnering new fans across the globe and making a splash in the music industry crowd.
Shane’s most recent full-length effort, “Night Like This”, was released in 2023 and features 16 tracks that showcase his ability to seamlessly blend country, rock, pop, and Americana. Gamble tracked the album in Nashville with heavy-hitting Nashville session players such as Jerry Roe on Drums, Sol Littlefield on Guitar, Sean Hurley on Bass, and Smith Curry on pedal Steel.
