Moon Boots was born in Brooklyn and spent his adolescence in the suburbs. Early formative musical memories include hearing MFSB’s “Love Is The Message” at block parties. Cut to high school years jamming along to Daft Punk in the barn with a blacklight on.

The first Moon Boots album, First Landing, arrived in 2017 on Anjunadeep, followed in 2019 by Bimini Road, and then in 2023 by Ride Away. As with his DJ sets, each album blends elements of house, disco, and R&B with a crate’s worth of musical influences. Each of these albums was also accompanied by an ambitious live show, showcasing Pete's mastery of piano, synth programming and arranging with dramatic vocal performances from his collaborators. The three records were widely embraced, amassing over 100 million streams.

Moon Boots has played everywhere from dimly lit clubs and warehouse parties to massive festivals. Regardless of the booth's location, his only goal is to keep people dancing.
