Pale Moon is an Icelandic-Siberian indie-folk/pop duo (Nata and Arni) based in Barcelona. Formed in 2018, they released an EP titled Dust of Days in Iceland. The pair later relocated to Spain and embarked on recording their first album.

The single “Stranger” — which is out now — is the first taste of the LP. This emotional and ruminative piece delves into the elusive pursuit of happiness. The evocative lyrics are delivered in a lush soundscape created from gentle guitars and beautiful harmonies.

Shot in Catalunya, Spain, the accompanying video evokes a general feeling of angst and sadness.
