Lunar Vacation will release their new album Everything Matters, Everything’s Fire on September 13th via Keeled Scales. The LP was produced by Drew Vandenberg (Faye Webster, Toro y Moi, Of Montreal). The band who grew up together as childhood friends. Now living under the same roof and having overcome life-threatening challenges together, Lunar Vacation have grown as best friends, homemakers, and a band, having learned to trust their instincts, as well as each other. “Our last album was super produced, manicured,” guitarist and vocalist Maggie Geeslin (she/her) says. “This one’s organic. We embraced mistakes; it made the work even better.” In other words: everything matters, everything’s fire.

Along with the album news, Lunar Vacation share the album’s lead single “Set The Stage” today alongside a video directed by actor and musician Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things). “This was the first love song I wrote about someone and then sent it to them. That is the first and last time I will ever do that. Love can make you do really strange things,” says vocalist and guitarist Gep Repasky. “It took some convincing on my end to fully realize this song, but that’s the best part about making music with my bandmates; they are the voice of reason and I trust them. So once the walls were down, we went in blazing, and changed the vibe of the sad, acoustic demo to the monster that it is now.”

Finn Wolfhard says of the video, “When I listened to ‘Set The Stage’ I was taken by how atmospheric it sounded. The feedback and droning guitars made me think of dark and rich environments. Gep’s beautiful melody offsets the darkness by bringing a levity and brightness. The goal was to have that melody reflected by dance, choreographed by the amazing Elana Wulkan. We had an amazing crew and I’m honored that Lunar Vacation asked me to direct this video for them, and even more honored to call them friends.”
