Chris Williams and Kid Reverie release “Strawberry Moon,” a folk single shaped by memory, distance, and the soft gravity of moments that arrive and disappear almost at once. Featuring Kid Reverie (Steve Varney) on lead vocals, the song drifts through seasonal imagery and quiet reflection, carried by organic acoustic textures and a patient, open arrangement.
Rather than spell everything out, “Strawberry Moon” moves like a recollection: summers that fade, friendships that shift, and love that remains just out of reach. The refrain lands with a gentle ache—“I lost you in the glow of a strawberry moon”—and then hangs in the air like an afterimage.
The track continues a collaboration that began with an unlikely spark—banjo lessons that turned into long-distance writing sessions—eventually growing into a fully realized songwriting partnership. In recent sessions, the duo have leaned further into atmosphere and restraint, letting space and silence carry as much emotional weight as the words.
The momentum around Williams and Varney’s work has steadily built since their 2023 collaborative album, Something from Nothing. “They’ve blossomed into one of the most exciting partnerships in modern folk,” wrote Eric Alper (That Eric Alper).
Warm, unresolved, and quietly luminous, “Strawberry Moon” is a new chapter in the duo’s shared world of storytelling—music that trusts the listener, and leaves the door slightly open.
“Strawberry Moon” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
