Under the Blue Moon

New Edition

A lush collection of 1950s doo-wop covers reimagined through mid-80s synthesizers and pristine four-part vocal harmonies. Romantic, nostalgic, and deeply sweet.

Moments Worth Listening For
The soaring falsetto lead on Earth Angel that bridges the gap between 1954 and 1986.
The way the percussion snaps with 80s precision against the vintage vocal arrangement of Duke of Earl.
The meta-narrative closing of Bring Back the Memories where the group directly references their own history and the departure of Bobby Brown.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
