After the cinematic sweep of Odyssey earlier this year, French post-rock/folk collective
KWOON now turns inward with a new chapter: the acoustic album Unplugged from the
Moon.
Led by the haunting single Chesslove, the record strips away effects to reveal the raw
essence of Kwoon’s universe — delicate, timeless, and deeply human.
Unplugged from the Moon serves as an “unplugged best of, breathing new life into
highlights from the band’s discography while introducing Chesslove as a luminous
centerpiece.
Electric guitar lines transform into sweeping string arrangements, while folk
textures, piano, and choral layers imbue the music with neoclassical grace.
The result is an intimate fireside atmosphere — music that drifts between gentle melancholy
and quiet poetry, inviting listeners to close their eyes and rediscover Kwoon in its purest
form.
