Little Moon
Dear Divine
Emma Hardyman, the singer-songwriter behind avant-folk project Little Moon, has always navigated contradictions. Born into a mixed-race, working-class Mormon family, she eventually left the church, grappling with its black-and-white philosophy while unlearning its influence on her life. Her latest album, "Dear Divine", emerged from a personal journey through love and loss. Initially conceived as a romantic tribute to her husband Nathan, the project transformed after the tragic death of his mother, evolving into a meditation on love, grief, and self-reflection. Drawing from her roots in classical music, folk, and video game soundtracks, the album intertwines personal memories and influences, creating a rich, emotional tapestry. Songs like "now" and "messy love" explore the complexities of relationships and life's inconsistencies. Through lush melodies, ethereal vocals, and layered instrumentation, "Dear Divine" offers an open-hearted embrace of life's messiness, finding beauty in imperfection and the search for home. Released on (Moon) white vinyl.
