Lawrence Parker "Moondi" Klein is an American singer and guitarist.

==Biography

Klein was raised in New York City. He performed with the New York Metropolitan Opera Children’s Chorus.

In 1984, he relocated to the Washington D.C. area.

Klein and Jimmy Gaudreau met in 1990 during a picking party. In 1992, they formed Chesapeake with Seldom Scene members Mike Auldridge (resonator guitar) and T. Michael Coleman (bass). At first part-time, the band eventually became a full-time occupation, and they recorded three albums for Sugar Hill. With no banjo, they were more acoustic country than bluegrass. Chesapeake disbanded in 1999 when their contract with Sugar Hill ended.

===Jimmy Gaudreau and Moondi Klein

When Chesapeake split up, Klein and Gaudreau began to play the occasional show. This led to their 2008 album 2:10 Train,[3] followed by Home From the Mill[4] and then If I Had A Boat, all released on Rebel Records[5]. In 2008, Gaudreau and Klein toured with Emmylou Harris.[6]

===Adam and Moondi

Klein's brother Adam Klein is an opera singer and a multi-instrumental folk musician. In 1981, Adam and Moondi recorded and album Me and My Brother.
