After COVID-19 first swept the world in 2020, Mono felt

compelled to make a special little gift for the Christmas

holiday. The accompanying message was simple: "Wishing

everyone good health, happiness, and good cheer in the

new year." Originally made at home in isolation, this

digital-only release consisted of two new Mono songs:

"Scarlet Holliday" and "First Winter." Now, to commemorate

the 2021 holiday season, Mono has reworked and

expanded Scarlet Holliday into a very special 3-song EP

(now including the brand new song, "Epilogue").

Recorded at home and at Electrical Audio by longtime

collaborator, Steve Albini, newly mixed by John McEntire,

and mastered by Bob Weston, Scarlet Holliday is finally

being released into the world on limited-edition 10" vinyl, as

well as all digital formats.

In their unflappable determination to shine light into the

darkness, Mono explains: "These songs were written with

the idea of new hope for the new year since this time has

become unforeseeably dark for many in the world."
