Introspective Folk-Pop Newcomer Jessie Mazin Goes Acoustic on ‘untitled.jpeg (Live From Medium Sized Backyard)’

Jessie Mazin is pulling the curtain back on her debut, trading studio polish for something quieter and closer. The rising folk and alternative pop voice has released ‘untitled.jpeg (Live From Medium Sized Backyard)’, a live acoustic set out now via Atlantic. The release follows the runaway success of her Medium Sized Backyard performance, which racked up more than 1.7 million views and made the case for hearing these songs stripped to the bone.

The EP captures a raw, intimate side of Mazin’s work across stripped-back takes on three songs from ‘untitled.jpeg’, including the breakout “the man with money in his hands,” plus “the precipice” and “alive.” She also folds in a reimagined cover of Calvin Harris’ “How Deep Is Your Love,” reshaping a dance-floor anthem into something hushed and personal.

The original ‘untitled.jpeg’, produced by Carlos de la Garza and Adam Melchor, follows Mazin through political unrest, heartbreak, and the emotional disorientation of early adulthood, all filtered through the lens of a generation raised online. Having grown up on the internet, she channels that digital coming-of-age into every track, charting the move from online adolescence to adult reality. The title nods to both the permanence and the performance of life lived on screen.

Critics caught on fast. Ones to Watch called the record a meeting with Mazin at her most vulnerable and her most unapologetic, bold and willing to divide. The live versions only sharpen that intimacy, letting her voice carry the room.
