On November 5th and 6th 2024 Little Mazarn had some studio time booked and went in to start a follow up album project to Mustang Island. It was a beautiful time of year, we had some fresh songs in the mix, and our friend Jolie Holland was in town. What could go wrong? Needless to say, things did not go according to plan. The heaviness of the American election results crashed through the studio door and landed right on top of us in our merry music making.
This EP is the result. After some tender listening, we decided these recordings needed to stand alone from a moment where things were very heavy but we didn’t allow ourselves to be crushed. We made art, we were together, and we did manage to have some laughs. Now a year later, this message rings truer to me than ever. Though much has been taken, much abides.
All songs by Lindsey Verrill except ‘Pennies From Heaven’ by Johnston and Burke. Little Mazarn is Carolina Chauffe, Jeff Johnston, and Lindsey Verrill. Special guest Jolie Holland appears on ‘Halloween Walk’, ‘Guided by Voices’, ‘Pennies from Heaven’ and ‘Election Day Poem’.
Recorded and mixed by Britton Beisenherz at Ramble Creek Studios in Austin, Texas. Mastered by Lucas Knapp.
Released on November 6th, 2025 by New New Sincerity
