Pink Hearts Yellow Moons is the debut album from Denver quartet Dressy Bessy.[4] The album was released on Kindercore Records in 1999.[5]

The songs "Just Like Henry" and "If You Should Try to Kiss Her" were included on the soundtrack to the 1999 movie But I'm a Cheerleader.

Critical reception

The Stranger called the album "by far, the catchiest indie-pop record of 1999 ... With Pink Hearts, Yellow Moons, every day was summer."[6] CMJ New Music Report wrote that it "is a candy dish full of light, sugary pop songs that beg you to add your own la-la background vocals."[1]
