Form Presents villagerrr + special guests.
Carousel, Mark Scott’s fifth album as villagerrr, moves from slowcore to shoegaze, from log-cabin folk to rock made for an empty freeway. The album is an exploration of what it means to try to make sincere art in a hyperexposed and constricting age, where Scott’s midwestern songs carry a desire to find enduring meaning in an era of commodification.
Piecing the music together over the course of two years, Scott let the collaborative spirit of his previous record flourish. 2024’s Tear Your Heart Out sparked tours with Real Estate, Greg Freeman and Momma, a new label deal with Winspear and a recent deluxe reissue, bringing in widening circles of listeners and collaborators. Carousel features a mix of Scott’s rising folk and indie rock peers, like Boone Patrello of Teethe, h. pruz and Carolina Chauffe of Hemlock, and was mixed by Scott after listening back to rough drafts on long drives or on runs.
With Scott’s ear for both detail and landscape, listening to villagerrr can feel like peering into prairie grass to see what is crawling there, then standing up to witness an oncoming storm. Carousel holds a lot of skepticism about the world we are in now, but it also shows that laying down your guard and reaching out to other people can spark creatively rich relationships and set the foundation for a life that is deeply meaningful and livable. Villagerrr will perform these songs live at The Hug and Pint on 26/10/2026 at 7:30 pm.
