Moonalice

Moonalice is an exuberant Bay Area 10-piece known for its unique brand of psychedelic soul and rock-tinged Americana. Led by vocalist Lester Chambers, co-founder of pioneering ’60s psychedelic soul group The Chambers Brothers, bassist Pete Sears, a founding member of Jefferson Starship, and guitarist Roger McNamee, who was an advisor to Grateful Dead and U2 and fights against entrenched power in the tech industry, Moonalice also features Barry Sless (lead guitar and pedal steel), Jason Crosby (keyboards), Grammy winner John Molo (drums), along with the next generation of legends including Lester’s son Dylan Chambers, and Erika, Rachel, and Chloe Tietjen of acclaimed Americana band the T Sisters. Their sound melds country-rock to psychedelic soul with elements of gospel, rock and Americana, as heard in their original songs and in their covers of Chambers Brothers classics like “Time Has Come Today” and “Love, Peace, and Happiness.” “We know who we are; we’re love, peace and happiness,” McNamee says. “It says what we’re up to. We want to be a beacon of optimism in a difficult time.”
