Ever hear the Buddhist parable about the pensive hare, wise lion, and a fallen acorn declaring the end of the world? Kill Rock Stars owner Slim Moon has. Inspired by the dense double meaning of the narrative and the raw power of six strings and soul-sleeved singers, he's merged the two with this songwriter compilation that includes contributions by Colin Meloy, Laura Veirs, Sufjan Stevens, Imaad Wasif, Wooden Wand, and more. A grand, gorgeous mix tape for endless nights and comfortably numb mornings.
