Ann and Jason began writing songs and playing music together in 1999 and formed a group then called 'Mayfly'. The two began performing locally as an acoustic duo but would later play with a full band, while staying true to their original sound.Their music has been described as "skeletal, acoustic-based songs" with a lead singer that "defies comparison and destroys them with her smooth, soulful voice and with lyrics that jump from anger to loss to beauty". -Alan Sparhawk. Their debut recording endeavor was their contribution to Spinout's 2000 compilation release "Duluth Does Dylan", receiving acclaim for their version of "It Ain't Me Babe". Mayfly maintained a weekly gig at the Norshor Theatre located in Duluth, MN and appeared on the local music scene at various venues throughout the region. In 2002, Ann and Jason collaborated with various local musicians to release an album entitled "Twilight Fair: Many Faces" benefitting the Mental Health Association. By putting music to lyrics written by women in the Fresh Start Program (a Duluth residence which serves women who live with borderline personality disorder), Ann and Jason promoted the Twilight Fair project with the intent of bringing awareness to the talent of persons with mental illness and to break the social stigma of mental illness. In 2004, Lookdown Moon released a 4-song self-titled EP, which they recorded at Duluth's own Sacred Heart Recording Studio. With new songs in tow, Lookdown Moon headed into the studio in the spring of 2007. Working with Dave Hill at Inland Sea Recording studio in Superior, WI, Lookdown Moon laid down material for their debut Full-Length album which was released in October of 2007. Ann & Jason currently perform live shows locally as well as regionally (some shows with full band and others as an acoustic duo) to promote the album, while continuing to write new material.
