Moon Taxi has just released its third album, “Mountains Beaches Cities,” self-produced by guitarist Spencer Thomson with the help of keyboardist Wes Bailey. Vance Powell, who’s also worked with Jack White and The Dead Weather, mixed the new project. It was mastered by Greg Calbi, who has worked on projects by the Talking Heads, Paul Simon and Fleet Foxes. 
 
The band, which was founded in 2006, has appeared at Bonnaroo, Forecastle and Lollapalooza.  Robert Rickman WGNS news.
 
 
“One thing we didn't want to do was stray too far from what we did before,” Bailey said of “Mountains Beaches Cities.” “We really knew that things for the band had shifted in a good direction and we were growing because of our last record. We wanted to continue the energy we created from that record.”
