Spectral singer-songwriter Mynolia releases 'Holy Line', an elemental and serene new single, along with the announcement of her upcoming new album 'Salt Around My Bed', out 15th January 2027 via Full Time Hobby.

New single 'Holy Line' captures the blurring of fantasy and real life, with distinctions dissolving, leaving a hazy, dreamlike environment to explore. The single is accompanied by a live performance video of the song, recorded at Berlin's Schiller Theatre. Its soft, pillowy soundscape wraps around and pulls everything into a trance-like atmosphere, grounded by Mynolia's striking vocals.

On the single Mynolia has said. "This song emerged almost fully from a vivid, bittersweet dream. It's disorienting when there is no discernible distinction between the dream memory and a real-life memory. 'Holy Line' is about reuniting with something you'd never really had, or had all along but didn't know it. The album's title, Salt Around My Bed, comes from the second verse: 'draw circles on my back in the new just like the old, salt around my bed, hoping you'd come along'. For me, the intention and magic was set in the dream, which made that threshold, or holy line, even blurrier."

After years spent in constant motion and relocation, Mynolia found a sense of stillness, settling in Berlin for her first adult years. She then made the decision to embark on a new beginning, landing in the remote wilderness of America's South, where she has drawn on those curative breaths and brought forth her most transformative work to date.

Spending her days learning the land and tapping into the unhurried sounds around her, 'Salt Around My Bed' gives warn-in instruments new life, and molds difficult lessons and fresh wisdoms into hypnotic synths and lush vocals. The fluidity of what 'home' means for Mynolia, is reflected in the songs; a sense of arresting vulnerability is constantly met with an unwavering resilience that comes from a lifetime of experience. She also found herself tuning into the mundane magic unfurling all around, making friends with her superstitions and recognizing the holiness in even the humblest of tasks. The burning of pictures, the scattering of salt, the crushing of eggshells for the garden - Mynolia conducts each ritual with equal care throughout the album, understanding the power we all hold within.

Speaking on the album Mynolia shares:
"My mind is a seesaw in pursuit of balance, but most of the time it's the not thinking that makes things snap into focus, the laughing that deepens the capacity for emotion and temperance that actually lays the foundation for change, both personal and collective."

She brought the almost finished project to the celebrated ambient jazz instrumentalist Rich Ruth, and with the help of musicians and friends from around the world, they fleshed out the final vision. Pete Pételle and Florian Holoubek have added drums and percussion, Full Time Hobby label-mate Spencer Cullum provided pedal steel, with Corin Droullard on horns. Violin and mandolin were courtesy of Patrick McGonigle, with Sam Que on flute. Co-producer Rich Ruth also brought synths, guitar and bass. Mynolia's friend Taylor Wafford (Blood Root) provided backing vocals, and her husband Charles Michael Parks Jr. (of the band All Them Witches) played bass.

The success of Mynolia's first release from the single 'Run Like Hell', drew critical attention from the likes of Clash who called it an "alt-folk hymnal shrouded in magic. Hushed tones reminiscent of Jessica Pratt or Vashti Bunyan"; and The Most Radicalist calling Mynolia's sound "ethereal and otherworldly" and "folky and evocative".

Mynolia is committed to defending this latest chapter, scattering a protective circle around all she has gathered, leaned into, and let go of in recent years, but on Salt Around My Bed, there's space for you to join and welcome peace alongside her.
