ESOPUS is a gorgeous looking semiannual arts publication based in NYC, and each issue contains a themed audio CD compilation – how vintage! For their 20th issue they asked musicians to write a song inspired by one of their personal belongings. Brooklyn singer-songwriter Cassandra Jenkins – with the help of Celestial Shore’s Sam Owens – created this song inspired by a taxidermied pet rabbit belonging to good friends of hers. Considering the subject, this couldn’t possibly be a happy song.
