New Haven-based folk duo Old Milk Mooney introduces their debut single, Take Heart, a song that bridges contemporary acoustic folk with a deep appreciation for early country traditions. Recorded at Sans Serif Studios in New Haven, CT, this track marks the first release from their forthcoming LP.
With Daniel Onorato at the helm as songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist, Take Heart features layered instrumentation that highlights the duo’s collaborative spirit. Clancy Emanuel’s contributions on drums, piano, and harmonies provide a strong foundation, while Ashly LaRosa adds lush vocal textures. Oriana Mac’s fiddle and Dan Carrano’s mandolin bring a timeless folk charm to the arrangement.
Centered around themes of radical self-acceptance, Take Heart captures the essence of Old Milk Mooney’s ability to craft music that feels both authentic and fresh, setting an exciting tone for their upcoming album.
