Following the release of her 2020 debut LP Unphased, Little Moon, the project (and childhood nickname) of Utah singer-songwriter Emma Hardyman, set out to write a romantic album about her newlywed husband, Nathan. The universe had other plans. After Nathan’s mother tragically passed away—a loss made more difficult by the fact that he had just informed her of his plans to exit the Mormon church—Hardyman recalibrated her vision and started work on a love-as-grief, grief-as-love album titled Dear Divine. Written after her own complicated departure from the Mormon Church, Dear Divine is Little Moon’s wide-eyed, intensely personal embrace of a whole new world. It is a vast, dense sonic tapestry of soaring multi-octave vocals over rich, future-baroque arrangements, mimicking the grandiosity and delicate ebbs and flows of nature, and the radical love and self-care that Hardyman seeks wherever she goes.

Flaco El Jandro is an independant artist from Salinas, CA. He describes his music as Rockmantica, indie-rock love songs heavily influenced by classic boleros and baladas from the 60’s and 70’s. However, he often dabbles in a variety of different styles including but not limited to cumbia, regional Mexican music and hip-hop. His genre-fluid style knows no boundaries. He’s been writing songs since a very young age and has been a part of various groups, most notably Dread i Knights and Qiensave. Flaco’s music and message draws much influence from the time he spent working as a musico at the world famous El Teatro Campesino, where he’s been a member since 2012. He’s worked closely with artists and producers such as E Arenas of Chicano Batman, Erik Canales of Allison, and Sam Pura (The Story So Far), just to name a few. In 2020 he released his self-produced debut EP Canciones Para Curar la Depresión. The title track Todo Sigue Igual was featured in the documentary Unhealthy Comedian. He found success in early 2022 on TikTok with his semi-viral hit Mi Encendedor, which expanded his fanbase immensely in a short period of time and was featured in The Daily Chela.
His songs cover a variety of themes such as love, heartbreak, culture, existentialism, and identity crisis which is something he has struggled with for most of his life. His commitment to his craft encompasses his drive to capture the essence of his antepasados ( ancestors ) , honoring where he comes from and elevating the Chicano experiences in his musical lyrics and infectious rhythm.. Flaco El Jandro’s aspiration is to bring his music and message to every soul that is willing and able to listen.
