Blackpool’s cinematic Rock band blanket are proud to announce a one-off performance of their debut album 'How To Let Go' under a Luke Jerram’s Museum Of The Moon - a spectacular 24ft replica of the moon, which will be held at Preston’s Harris Museum Art Gallery & Library. The performance will take place on 23rd February 2019, celebrating 50 years since the moon landings. Tickets are available for purchase here. The Museum Of The Moon is a new touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram. Measuring seven metres in diameter, the moon features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface. At an approximate scale of 1:500,000, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 5km of the moon’s surface. “This is exactly the kind of thing we strive to be a part of as a band” says bassist Matthew Sheldon, “we love playing unique venues and being part of special events like these. We like to think of our live shows as something more than just a gig, we want people to see it as an audio-visual experience, so something like this is just perfect for us. We want to make it really special so we’ll be bringing in guest musicians and a small choir so that we can do the record and all its layers justice.”
