Empty Moon "The Empty Moon Story" released 7/26/19 on High Dive Records
Empty Moon is the familiar voice of Brendan Hangauer (Fourth Of July), a KC kid back home after 5 years in Oakland. Continuing and deepening the lyrical candor from his boozy college years fronting Lawrence’s Fourth Of July and the westward drift and disillusionment of his self-titled Empty Moon debut, “The Empty Moon Story” is one turtelenecked man’s attempt to see it and tell it straight while the world around him goes off the deep end.

Recorded and mixed in Los Angeles by Jason Quever
