NEWS - Jenny Gillespie Mason - “Rungs of Love” is an intimate folk song from my upcoming album In the Safety of the Light, produced by Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, Devendra Banhart)

I wrote the song on a 1976 Martin guitar after a period away from songwriting, inspired by the spiritual folk lineage of Bert Jansch and Vashti Bunyan. The song explores the idea that ordinary human love can be a ladder toward higher consciousness. Sonically it’s warm, spacious acoustic folk with subtle psychedelic textures and a devotional tone. My previous project Sis has received airplay on BBC Radio 6 Music, KCRW, KEXP and was previously featured on Spotify editorial playlists, Soft Office and Fresh Finds. “Rungs of Love” is an intimate folk song from my upcoming album In the Safety of the Light, produced by Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, Devendra Banhart).
