Another good movie called “Moonlight” (It’s by Hanni El Khatib who plays the Chapel tonight as part of Noise Pop!)

Watch:

That song’s from a couple years back, but this current tour is in support of Hanni El Khatib‘s just-released “Savage Times” album.

Tonight’s show is sold out, but maybe you can still get in if you have a Noise Pop festival pass or you work for a blog or you manage to connect with someone on the Facebook invite.
