Utterly original and captivating, genre-defying folk-rock duo Secret Moon's thought-provoking lyrics, soaring vocals and distinctive song-writing (not to mention searing fingerstyle guitar) have been touching the hearts and tear ducts of their audiences since their debut in 2022 -
Made of multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer Joel Beauchamp (Canada) and vocalist/co-writer Yin Ling (Singapore), the duo met playing at adjacent Sound Healing Pyramids (yes, real life ones!) in stunning Bali where they are based - their individual life stories intertwined and their romantic connection blossomed into a musical collaboration.
Overcoming incredible odds in both their lives, Joel’s burning motivation and obsession with music began in the Toronto punk and metal scene and was transformed through a deep dive into yoga and spirituality in an effort to manage a debilitating anxiety disorder - while Yin Ling turned her back on the usual expectations of her materialistic Singaporean upbringing to pursue her own spiritual path through shamanic practice and her utterly distinctive vocal expression.
Secret Moon is here to share the faith in the earth, love for humanity and awe at the endless creative power of the divine self that lives at the heart of all things - and to defy genres by creating utterly original music true to the pure creative impulse.
Mesmerising and powerful on stage, Secret Moon’s music draws from a deep well of musical influences from the theatrical imagination of Kate Bush, the deeply personal songwriting of Nick Drake and the spiritual quest of Krishna Das, to the virtuosity of masters like Vishwa Mohan Bhatt, Alice Coltrane and Leo Kottke.
Secret Moon launched their Debut EP 'Floating Medina' to a sold-out 200-person crowd at PARQ Ubud and have been featured at Bali Spirit Festival 2022, New Zealand Spirit Festival 2023, Cities of Well-Being Festival 2022 and have performed in Singapore, Zurich, Berlin, Kalimantan and Barcelona.
Joel and Yin Ling also hold musical education workshops and gatherings - from Voice Activation to Songwriting and circles of all kinds.
