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.
