Twilight Moon

About Me

The story begins back in the spring of 1998 when Twilight Moon was formed by Mathias Lillmåns and Kenneth Nygård, the two original members of the band. Guitarist Joonas Lönnbäck soon joined along with keyboard player Karin Thörnfeldt. During 1998 also several rhythm guitarists was tried out but no one seemed to be the right one. Around christmas and new year 1998-1999 the debut demo was recorded, a 5 track demo, which never was officially released but followed by a couple of gigs during 1999.Several songs was written, and in May 2000 Twilight Moon entered the studio again, which resulted in "Aether", a 6 track EP which was released in August 2000. Around same time as the EP was recorded, Mikael Mannström joined as a rhythm guitarist and permanent member, this also resulted in more gigs during summer and fall.
In January 2001 Mannström and Nygård had do take care of their military service, so the band took a short brake. Later on in July the same year Karin Thörnfeldt moved to Sweden and left because of practial resons.
In the beginning of 2002 a replacement was found in Caroline "Syssi" Ahlvik and she became a permanent member, and in late summer the recordings for "Shattered reflections" started and the single was released in September. While promoting both "Shatteed reflections" and "Aether" a distribution deal with french Melancholia records was signed.
Lönnbäck left in early 2003 and was replaced by Jonas Frilund. Under several months Twilight Moon concentrated on preparations for a new mini-cd, in August the recordings started. "Delusional" contains 4 songs and was released late 2003, also this one is distributed by Melancholia records. On the 20th of December the first video recording took place, and "Trembling sky" was shot.
Ahlvik left in the beginning of 2004 because of practical reasons and a permanent replacement was not to be found. As a solution to this obvious problem Mathias took over the keyboards live. In 2005 Karin returned from Sweden and rejoined Twilight moon as a permanent member. Also at the same point Mats Backström came in as a bass player and a permanent member, leaving Lillmåns to concentrate fully on his vocals.
Durin late 2005 and the beginning of 2006 Twilight moon fully concentrated on song writing and got material ready for their first full length album. Unfortunately the recordings never took place due to the fact that the members moved on in different directions. We are all today busy with other bands and project and Twilight moon have now been laid to rest, at least for now. But who knows, there might be more to come in the future.....
We will do our last official gig on saturday 5th of january 2008 at Music Club Jeppis, Pietarsaari, Finland. Be there and celebrate with us!!
