Little Mazarn Share Dark Pleasure of Endless Doing
If you’re willing to step outside of the traditional cycle of indie rock, you’re going to find some of the most charming music lurking, like Austin’s Little Mazarn. In the band’s latest track, it’s almost stripped down to the barest essentials, operating with keys and Lindsey Verrill’s narration; I admit to taking Lindsey’s voice for granted, as her musicianship has always shined, but it’s a sparkling gem here. Influenced by an omnipresence of horses over the year or so during the album’s writing cycle, Verrill was able to tie the gentle treatment of the animal into a metaphor for how we treat ourselves, being sure to take great care without letting our minds “stray off into the wild fields of social media and scroll.” The group will release Mustang Island on June 20th via Dear Life Records.
