Welcome to Moontown
"What the heck is Moontown?" "Well it's a state of mind and my production company." "I don't understand." "Read on."
Hi I'm Ari, I'm from Moontown.
I started making movies to tell stories. Then I started making music to tell stories. I didn't know how to combine the two but knew it came from the same place. I like to call that place Moontown.
