The singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, Colin Dieden had all but forgotten his childhood baseball nickname, “Little Hurt”, until he woke up from a deep sleep one night in 2019. Feeling a strong need to fulfill the name once more—not at home plate, but in the studio and on stage as the moniker for his solo music, Little Hurt was born.
By 2019, that “kid” had come a long way from Kansas, fronting The Mowgli’s to international success upheld by over 200 million cumulative streams, critical acclaim from Rolling Stone and The Fader, and sold out shows far and wide. After nearly a decade, he desired to share himself like never before though.
