UK musical shapeshifter, Moonchild Sanelly releases her latest album Full Moon

With tracks ranging from electronic, afro-punk, edgy-pop, kwaito, and hip-hop, UK dance music artist Moonchild Sanelly has released an incredible third album entitled Full Moon. It’s an upbeat beacon of life and hope that’s perfect for lifting your spirit.

Moonchild sums up the feeling of the album best in her own words;

“My last album Phases showed you the different sides of me one at a time and FULL MOON is all of me, lit up in my entirety.  FULL MOON is the arrival of my whole self, the sum of everything I’ve gone through & every emotion I had to feel… Childhood trauma, fights, letdowns, abandonment, sadness, survival, getting back up, letting go, forgiving, accepting and rebuilding everything for me and for my kids.  So here I am, a FULL Moon…”

Check out the single “Tequila (To Kill a Single Girl)” below:

The album is pure dance, filled with joy and happiness. Another great single is “Falling”. It’s music that is easy to instantly fall in love with.

While there’s tours announced for the UK and Europe, nothings planned for Australia at this stage. But this is the artist that you can tell your friends that you’d heard of before she became famous down under. She’s collaborated with Steve Aoki for his single “Mad” and most recently “Streets Is Calling” with Ezra Collective and M.anifest.

This is an artist to watch and the 12 track album is a perfect summer playlist; imagine blasting these tunes on a sunny Sunday afternoon BBQ.
