There’s a quiet bravery in saying something real without raising your voice. That’s exactly what Fritz Kahn and The Miracles accomplish with “Little Boy Blue” a gentle folk-country ballad that feels like it wandered in from the edge of dawn and decided to stay a while.

Produced by roots legend Orville Johnson, the track lives in a minimalist, lo-fi Americana space where every breath and guitar string matters. Think Townes Van Zandt stripped even further down, or Iron & Wine humming into a coffee cup at 3 a.m. It’s beautifully sparse, just vocals, subtle strings, and space. And in that space, the lyrics speak volumes.
“I don’t know if he’s black, I don’t know if he’s white, I just feel he’s okay.”
There’s no flash, no grand declarations. Just raw empathy in a world obsessed with labels. “Little Boy Blue” becomes a stand-in for anyone lost, trying, surviving, and the aching chorus (“Are you even true?”) feels like a question directed inward as much as out.

The track is the first taste of the EP A Place Called Dawn, inspired by a real all-night café in rural Portugal, where the misfits and dreamers find refuge. That’s exactly what this song feels like: a quiet place to feel human for a moment.
