Goodnight Moonshine by Goodnight Moonshine
1. Work I Done (Venter) Molly wrote this song after spending Father's Day in the Brooklyn Naval Museum at the end of her street.
2. All Our Friends (Venter/Pariser) A wedding song written for our friends Reif and Katie. The recording came out more edgy than sweet- we hope they don't mind.
3. Big Enough (Pariser/Venter) This love song called for a modern interpretation with big-screen punch. Big enough?
4. Gasoline (Venter) Good old burn-down-the-house heartbreak.
5. Goodnight Moonshine (Venter) This is for my Mom, from my Dad. ~m
6. End of the World Blues (Pariser) Eben wrote this after meeting two Jehovah's Witnesses at his doorstep.
7. Willow Tree (Pariser/Venter) The first song we wrote together: Eben had a killer chorus and Molly found the rest of the story.
8. Walkin' After Midnight (Block/Hecht) One of the first songs we played together.
9. Light At the End of the Day (Venter/Pariser) Red Molly and Roosevelt Dime hold a monthly songwriting hootenanny; here's one from "The Hang."
10. Dark Side of the Rainbow (various) Eben's high-school discovery; definitive proof that Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" was intended to play along with "The Wizard of Oz."
11. Winston-Salem (Venter) In 2007, Molly opened a show for the great Malcolm Holcolmbe, inspiring this song.

Goodnight Moonshine is a guitar and vocal duet, and a musical marriage in all senses. The Duo combines the evocative voice and songwriting of Molly Venter of Red Molly fame, with Eben Pariser’s adventurous and awe-inspiring guitar playing. The result is folk music with a depth of improvisation and tonal subtlety usually reserved for jazz.
