In 2016, Charlies Moothart described the dynamic of the band: "Mikal Cronin wrote most of the music for Moonhearts. I just played drums. I wrote one song - which Mikal wrote the vocal melody for and helped me finish - but I just played the drums in that band so the name is misleading. The name started as kind of a joke because we were young and didn’t really think too much about it." [10]
