The concert will bring together every member of the group who is still around here or abroad. The show will have a complete repertoire of songs made popular by Clarence, Annesley and Indrani as Moonstones.

Moonstones has produced some of the finest musicians to have emerge in the local music scene. The show will also have some interesting revelations about the formation of the band Moonstones and developments thereafter.

The show also coincides with Clarence’s 76 b’day which falls on August 3. Chitral Somapala will perform some of the popular songs of his parents rearranged by Clarence Wijewardana. The show is presented by DK Promotions.
