Love By Numb3rs Share New Video “Earth Needs A Moon”
The Title Cut off Their Second Album Out September 30

Portland, Maine-based indie trio LOVE BY NUMB3RS–co-vocalists Dan Connor and Anna Lombard and multi-instrumentalist Jon Roods–have today shared the video for “Earth Needs A Moon” ahead of the single’s July 15 digital release. With its big spacious sound, rootsy feel and the soulful vocals of Dan and Anna, “Earth Needs A Moon” marks the first single from LOVE BY NUMB3RS’ second album that’s due out September 30. As with the band’s previous self-directed videos, “Earth Needs A Moon” lures viewers with its moody and compelling imagery. Watch the video below and see the quotes below from Anna.

“Earth Needs A Moon” is a gentle slice of atmospheric soul awash in echo and emotion. Connor and Lombard sing to each other in a very real way over the track’s beautiful subtlety, a disarming feel that allows listeners to ruminate on the lyrics and performances. Both voices loom large, the guitars say just what they need to, and the song will make you stop and take it all in. The accompanying music video is handled just as artistically and helps this one carry you away. “Earth Needs A Moon” is as meaningful as it gets and you’re going to want it in your daily playlist.

Watch “Earth Needs A Moon”

 
The EARTH NEEDS A MOON album, produced by Jon and Anna, is filled with haunting and evocative songs about love, devotion and more with finely etched, atmospheric settings, over which the band cast their spells. The tracks are sonically wide-open and move slowly, however confidently, and make the listener feel like they are floating in air on a journey somewhere. The album was recorded at Fisher’s Waterhouse on Peaks Island as well as the band’s South Ranch studio. EARTH NEEDS A MOON follows the band’s November 2021 Colours EP and doesn’t repeat any of its songs. This is the music of a band who freewheelingly chart a course through eloquent alternative, Americana and roots rock.

Anna says, “We ended up renting a trailer and bringing Jon’s 1976 Honda 550 Four K motorcycle along with all our gear for the festival we were playing the night before in the neighboring town, and we stayed up there for a few days to film. It was kind of cool that the Tau Herculids meteor shower was happening at the same time–the visibility of the night sky up in Industry is like no other…which is cool because of how much this record is influenced by the workings of the universe and the moon etc.”

The video for “Earth Needs A Moon” was shot in a town called Industry, Maine where there are rolling hills and back roads and lots of expansive landscapes with wildflowers and fields. It is based on a story and art by celebrated artist and their friend Pat Corrigan. The band got his permission to use his drawings and bring them to life in the video.

“I never want to see your darker side” references the influence that Pink Floyd’s “The Dark Side of the Moon” has on this song but also the darkness that comes with cancer and addiction,” Anna adds.
