Imagine Dragons Set to Make History with First Song Broadcast from the Moon
In an audacious leap beyond Earthly bounds, Imagine Dragons is poised to make musical history by becoming the first band to have a song broadcast from the Moon. This groundbreaking achievement is set to unfold with their track “Children of the Sky,” which was originally recorded for the open-world video game Starfield.
The song is slated for its live premiere during the band’s Hollywood Bowl concert on October 27, where it will be performed alongside the Los Angeles Film Orchestra and composer Inon Zur. The performance is more than a mere spectacle; it is part of Lonestar’s Freedom Mission, a mission that aims to transmit the song from the Moon’s surface back to Earth. This historic event will take place in early 2025 as part of a lunar exploration project coordinated by Intuitive Machines.
Ryan Micheletti, an investor in Lonestar through The Veteran Fund, expressed the mission’s vision, stating that the aim is to ignite excitement about the future of space and technology in young minds. “Children of the Sky” is envisioned as a beacon of inspiration, marking the first time a song will be broadcast from the Moon’s surface.
Although Imagine Dragons won’t be accompanying their song to the Moon, their ambitious endeavor reflects a commitment to pushing the boundaries of musical and technological innovation. Fans eager to witness this cosmic milestone can purchase tickets for the Hollywood Bowl performance, where they can enjoy “Children of the Sky” in its terrestrial form until its lunar debut.
