He’s been featured on more than 30 albums & continues to make music w/ Cloud Over Jupiter & his new group MOON X w/ Newhouse.

Horror, sci-fi and Cyberpunk legend John Shirley is a very well-known musician and together with Jerry King they made explosive music. Some of the lyric is weird and from Shirley`s own poems. The arrangement is subtle and the duo enjoy to explore different soundscape.
