Formed by long-time Hamilton, ON musician Trevor Ziebarth (Actor\/Writer\/Composer on Teletoon&#8217;s adult comedy series Sons of Butcher), Moonlight Desires is his ode to the raunchy romances and youthful misadventures of summer\u2019s past. By re-working synth laden pop hits of the 1980s, Ziebarth manages to turn familiar guilty pleasures into modern, guitar-driven rock anthems.  <!--more-->  Joined in the studio by drummer Dave Dunham (Not Of, DAVIDS, ex-Chore, ex-Sons Of Butcher) and lead guitarist Marco Bressette (Dead Tired, ex-Threat Signal), their new album \u201cJust The Hits: 1981-1985\u201d transforms timeless hits such as \u201cSunglasses At Night\u201d by Corey Hart and \u201cSomething About You\u201d by Level 42 into party rock anthems.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On our second album, Just The Hits: 1981-1985, all the songs I selected have a special place in my heart, nostalgic melodies that are still as catchy now as they were back then. It sounds weird but, when I was searching out potentials to cover, whether I was at Walmart, Shoppers Drug Mart or even at the Olympics in Russia, I kept hearing these certain songs over and over and I knew they were the ones I was meant to do! If the songs are still being played on the radio to this day, that certainly speaks to how great they are, I&#8217;m just making them heavier! To stay consistent with the nostalgic, the album is not only being released digitally and on CD, but we&#8217;ve also run a limited edition cassette, which is numbered and autographed (including a download card of course). We&#8217;re really excited about the album and hope it&#8217;s the soundtrack of every back-to-school jam this year.&#8221; says Trevor Ziebarth.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Track Listing:<br \/>1.
