Little Moon was written and recorded by Connor Jay Liess at Trapper's Attic Records earlier this year, and features the Idaho balladeer on vocals as well as guitar, bass, harmonica and organ.

lyrics

I found our picture the other day
The one my mother took and framed
You kids have fun tonight, she said
Oh, what I’d give to be young again

All sage and gray, I swear, I’m the same old man
I’ve kept that silver ring in a jar of shells and sand

They say it’s coming any day
All the Christians say they’re saved
But even God has joined the race
And bought a residence in space

The train’s long died and the planes are boarded up
All the families band together, but mine don’t call that much

Did you leave the Delaware Bay?
I saw the coast was blown away
I’d like to see you, if that’s alright?
The nurse’s leave the van at night

Each day another billionaire buys shelter in the skies
We could find our own little moon and call it whatever you like

I’ve never seen a cloud so mean
The wipers keep the window clean
There’s people melting on the street
And so much country I wish I’d seen

We went our separate ways, I regret it all my life
And all I’ve to show for it is cotton hair and pride
I’ve gone as far as I can go with this nail in the tire
We coulda had a little moon and watched the world expire
