Moonlight Jones intertwines classic romanticism with contemporary swagger in “Whatcha Doin’ To Me” [Video]
Moonlight Jones is a Miami-based artist who has assembled a Grammy award-winning team of collaborators to create a hybrid genre of music called “cosmic-soul.” His sound incorporates the fullness and wonder of artistic diversity while celebrating the cultural traditions that have been passed down throughout history. Seamlessly blending elements of Latin, R&B, blues, and rock, Jones encourages everyone to come together for a dynamic and welcoming musical experience.
Moonlight Jones’ new release, “Whatcha Doin’ To Me” is an enigmatic, sexy serenade that chronicles an encounter between two star-crossed strangers. Written alongside his highly acclaimed collaborators Nino Valentino and Doug Emery, the song is a modern Latin-inspired anthem with notes of silky-smooth sensuality and rhythmic percussion. Directed by the acclaimed David Rousseau, best known for his work with Pitbull, the music video takes place on a train in France during 1954. After the train enters a dark tunnel, the music fades for a moment as the film transitions from vintage black and white into vibrant color as Jones pops bottles of champagne and embraces the seductive stranger. Combining gritty electric guitar solos, smooth sultry vocals, and colorful Latin percussion, the track embodies the true essence of Jones’ genre of “cosmic-soul.” During his sensual guitar solo, the music video features an impressive performance from a sequin-dressed dancer at the train station. After a romantic encounter, Moonlight Jones and the mysterious stranger return to the station and dance together. Jones serenades her, both characters completely washed over with lust.

Born to an Egyptian father and a Czech- American mother, his exposure to multicultural sights and sounds began at a very young age. “Whatcha Doin’ To Me” follows his debut single “Hot Night”, further championing this artist’s genre-bending career to new heights.
