Moon Before Dawn 9:40 pm Hailing from Manchester, Gothic Metal ensemble Moon Before Dawn began their journey through the macabre at the tail end of 2024, when vocalist Vincent Sterlacchini, guitarist Alex Holt, bassist Lou Tarabay, and a Mysterious Entity on the drums, were brought together through a mutual passion for goth, alternative rock, and various webs of heavy metal. Together, the four piece have developed a dark and unique sound, blending their individual tastes to form a concoction that is as melodic as it is melancholy, and as heavy as it is sincere.
