Little D is the fourth album by Fishboy, released by Business Deal Records. The album is a tribute to the city of Denton, Texas (from whose nickname the album gets its name), and features current and former Denton-based artists like Paul Slavens, Corn Mo, Chris Flemmons (of the Baptist Generals), and Howard Draper (formerly of Shearwater).

The songs, which are reminiscent of They Might Be Giants, cover "feel-good" themes such as bananas, dogs, and pizza rolls.[1]
