Anthony Moore

Event information

Anthony Moore—composer, songwriter, and founding member of the avant-pop group Slapp Happy—continues to expand his singular musical world with his new album, On Beacon Hill. Known for his adventurous approach to sound and his imprint on both experimental and art-rock traditions, Moore has spent decades moving fluidly between solo work, band projects, film composition, and production. His work with Slapp Happy and their collaborators established him as a distinctive voice whose writing balances sharp intellect with emotional resonance.
On Beacon Hill marks a reflective and refined chapter in Moore’s catalog, bringing together his characteristic lyrical wit, minimalist textures, and quietly subversive harmonic writing. Early listeners have praised the album’s spaciousness and clarity, noting its blend of craft and subtle experimentation. Recent sessions for BBC Radio 6 have further highlighted the album’s intimate energy, offering stripped-back performances that showcase Moore’s voice and songwriting in close focus.
Reviews have described On Beacon Hill as both a continuation and a reinvention—an album that draws on Moore’s long artistic history while embracing a modern, unhurried sensibility. It stands as another thoughtful, deftly crafted work from an artist who remains consistently original.
