We Were Just Here

Off the back of 2022’s critically acclaimed Heart Under, Dundalk, Ireland's 5-piece Just Mustard now return with “POLLYANNA,” the luminous and lurching first tease of their anticipated third album (more on that coming soon). A thrilling collision of warped guitars, submerged beats, and front woman Katie Ball’s dreamlike vocals pushed higher in the mix than ever before, the track captures the band at a turning point - reaching for euphoria while wrestling with its emotional cost. Anchored by the group’s signature sonic disorientation but newly embracing directness and melody, “POLLYANNA” sets the tone for a new era of Just Mustard, one that finds beauty in contradiction, pairing the raw power of noise-rock with a conflicted optimism that’s as disarming as it is cathartic.
