“Enchanting acoustic music that conjures atmospheric soundscapes.”

— Pete Prown, writer for Guitar World

“Moon and Bike compose the soundtrack of a daydream on the tender tones of One. A bright, brilliant blend of electric and acoustic guitar, they hit the right balance between the two. Their deft interplay reveals two guitarists who truly listen to each other, bouncing ideas and gestures off each other with the utmost of care. Without needing to say a single word they create a lyrical album, for they truly excel at making their guitars sing. Forgoing traditional rhythm, they opt for a pastoral vision - one where the cyclical nature of their playing results in trance-like ragas that soar on up into the sky.”

— Entropy Magazine

“One, the new release by instrumental guitar duo Moon and Bike, is a beautiful and timeless recording. The compositions are gorgeous, each one a gem that evokes many moods, colors, landscapes and emotions. Boone Johnson's captivating acoustic guitar playing and Michael Swanson's excellent electric guitar and keyboard work display exquisite and complementary interplay; with a wide tonal palette, they paint sonic pictures that transport the listener to many magical places. Highly recommended!”

— Margaret Slovak, highly acclaimed jazz guitarist and composer

“Moon and Bike have such an original sound. Between ethos and ethereal, they paint a landscape of layers, part soundtrack, part ghost western. In other words, these guys are really good at what they do. The album One is exceptional in every way and is a must have. Thank you Boone and Michael.”

— Jim Burns, Host of KPOV Guitar Showcase

“When I’m mastering a record, I usually try to maintain an objective relationship with the music. With this album, I was instantly drawn to the material. I have always been an instrumental music aficionado and self-described guitar nerd. Moon and Bike combines elements I love in my leisure-time listening.”

— Jeff Stuart Saltzman, Recording Engineer (Death Cab for Cutie, King Black Acid); Portland, OR
