About Lunar and The Deception

Hi, we're Lunar and the Deception, join us on our mission to release & promote our debut album...
The album is finished, pressed, and ready.
Our release date is set for 6 March 2026.

After five years of writing, recording, and creating, we’re now at the final — and most important — stage of the journey: bringing this music into the world properly.

We’re inviting you to partner with us in making that happen.

To do so, we’re aiming to raise £9,000 which directly supports:

·       Professional multi-market promotion with Bark PR and PLAYY PR – £4,000

·       Hand-designed merchandise, including t-shirts, tote bags, and caps – £3,000

·       Album launch event and 'The Great Bison' music video – £2,000

If we do this right, the album doesn’t just get released — it gets heard.

It reaches beyond our immediate circle, finds new listeners, earns serious attention, and lives in the world in the way it was always meant to.

Professional promotion and a considered launch give the record the space to land with intention, rather than getting lost in the noise.

In short, this funding gives the album a real life beyond release day — allowing five years of work to travel, connect, and endure.

You’ve always been there for us — encouraging, supporting, believing — and that’s why it feels right to invite you into this final chapter. This album exists because of community, and releasing it properly can only happen the same way.

As a thank you, we’ve created a collection of exclusive rewards and collector’s pieces, available only through this campaign.

These include limited-edition vinyl and CDs, signed lyric sheets, bespoke jackets, handmade one-off jewellery, private concerts, unique artworks, and intimate one-to-one experiences with band members.

By supporting this campaign, you’re stepping into the liminal space where this music lives — where sound becomes a beacon, and where together we can amplify five years of work into something bigger than ourselves. Something that connects, unites, and offers hope in uncertain times.

If you’d prefer to support us without selecting a reward, we’re deeply grateful for that too. Simply click the Donate option and give what you can.

Thank you for being part of this journey — we truly couldn’t do it without you.

Thank you so much x

This what some of the press have said about The Somnambulist:

“9/10” Powerplay Magazine

“A hypnotic yet bold soundscape capturing truth and rebellion” Earmilk

“A rallying cry for the rise of the feminine, the artist and the truth” Louder than War

“Mystical sensory terrain… a direct response to corrupt politics.” Roadie Metal

This is music with conscience: an earnest artistic act that reflects centuries of social injustice, channels the plight of the underdog, and aspires to uplift and enlighten.
