Toronto native Daniel Benjamin and collaborator/co-conspirator Maddy Wilde have been making music together for most of their lives. As Moon King, they weave dreamlike harmonies over buzz-saw guitars and electronic percussion, with their live performances capturing a raw-nerve intensity that verges on ecstatic.

Many of their songs appeal to our darker subconscious desires, reveling in the embrace of fear and ego as a means of escape. Moon King’s first EPs, Obsession I and II, were released on Fucked Up guitarist Mike Haliechuk's label One Big Silence, and re-released in Europe by Tough Love Records in the fall of 2013. They have since signed to indie powerhouse Last Gang for their debut LP ‘Secret Life’, out April 14th 2015, and their extensive international touring history includes tours with Doldrums (Daniel’s brother Airick), Austra, Majical Clouds, and (Mr) Twin Sister, among others.
