Little Scream says she began conceiving of Cult Following while visiting a friend in a small intentional community in northern Brazil that was on the verge of becoming a cult.

"People were running around reading auras, interpreting each other's dreams, and 'living on light' instead of eating - which was as compelling as it was absurd.

I became very aware of the entropy of belief. You could feel the magnetism of ideas take shape and pull people into their center like a black hole...

a thing so filled with light that its own gravity means that none of it can escape." Cult Following is a record that deserves to be listened to from start to finish, with each song having been constructed to meld seamlessly into the next.

There may be those who listen only to the record's obvious catchy hit, but they would be missing out on the depth of stunners like "Wishing Well" and "Someone Will Notice." Like a classic novella, you must pass through all of the record's stages to fully experience a triumphant hero's journey.

Mary Margaret is one of several guests to appear on this record, along with Sufjan Stevens, Sharon Van Etten, and Kyp Malone.
