History
[edit]Lunar Vacation formed in 2016 while in high school after a teacher suggested that Gep and Maggie should start a band, they later jammed with John Michael Young and Connor Dowd and ended up recruiting them. In 2017, after their first keyboard player left, they recruited Matteo DeLurgio. They released their first EP in 2017 titled Swell.[1] The group released their second EP, Artificial Flavors, in 2018.[2]
In 2019 John Michael Young parted ways with the band and decided to go solo. In 2021, the band released their debut full-length album through Keeled Scales called Inside Every Fig Is A Dead Wasp.[3][4][5] The album was produced by Daniel Gleason of Grouplove.[6]
