New single out on 10 July 2026
“Imposter” is the first single off MOON MATES’ debut album “Desire To Connect”. The sunny indie country pop song is about the recurring feeling of not being enough and the realisation that true love makes you feel like yourself again. While the verses are rhythmically driven, the chorus feels light and airy, and the country bridge is liberating.

About MOON MATES
MOON MATES take you on a journey through the valleys and peaks of life, with all its humour, heartbreak and irony. Putting the essence of their life experiences into their songs, Gloria and Benjamin write from the singer-songwriter heart and turn it into meaningful music with a knowing wink. Rooted somewhere between Indie-Pop, Country, and Americana, they move effortlessly between upbeat, fun tracks and intimate, climactic pieces.
In recent years, they’ve played at events like the Reeperbahn Festival, PULS Open Air, Waves Vienna and The Great Escape in Brighton. Their music has been featured on stations like FluxFM, PULS, Bayern 2, egoFM, byteFM, and N-Joy, and has been highlighted by magazines like DIFFUS and Tonspion.
After their debut EP “Random Dad Barbecue Music” (2021), MOON MATES followed up in 2024 with two EPs: “I Am Disconnected” and “Because of the Summer Night Experiences”. Their debut album “Desire To Connect” is set to be released in 2026.
