Mignonette

Twenty tracks of raw, brotherly harmonies and stomping banjo. A sprawling, earnest document of Southern indie-folk at its most vulnerable and unpolished.

It’s like a back-porch jam session that somehow turns into a deep therapy session.

A raw and deeply earnest exploration of morality and love, balancing rowdy energy with quiet, prayer-like vulnerability.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden, crashing transition from the delicate 'Swept Away' into the stomping, high-energy banjo of 'Nothing Short of Thankful'
The way the harmonies swell and break during the final chorus of 'Salvation Song', sounding like a secular hymn
The raw, unpolished vocal strain in 'Pretty Girl at the Airport' that perfectly captures the ache of a long-distance goodbye
