Indie Songsmith Jenny Gillespie Mason Shares Dream-Prayer Single “Touch Everyone On Earth”

Jenny Gillespie Mason has unveiled the final piece of her next record. The songwriter just shared “Touch Everyone On Earth,” the third and last single from her forthcoming album ‘In the Safety of the Light’, due 12th June, 2026 on Native Cat Recordings. Produced by Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, Devendra Banhart, Bert Jansch, Vashti Bunyan), the track unfolds like a dream-prayer, drawn from a sleepless night in a New York City hotel room where its narrator imagines the Divine Mother answering a plea to heal a traumatised world. Recorded on Wurlitzer at Georgeson’s suggestion, it carries a plaintive, tender quality that mirrors the act of prayer at its core.

Mason traces the song to a single restless night. “This song draws from a spiritual experience I had on a sleepless night visiting New York City a few years ago. I often have really beautiful, deep experiences there, sometimes pretty intense and weird, that end up changing me,” she explains. “I heard recently the city is built on a bedrock of quartz, so it’s just super charged and can be transformative if you’re open. Noah Georgeson who produced the record suggested I record this song on Wurlitzer which I think fits perfectly as it’s such a plaintive, tender sound and the song’s chorus describes the act of prayer.” It’s a quietly transfixing piece of writing.

The single follows “Rungs of Love” and “Medicine of Light,” which together trace the ladder between earthly love and higher devotion. With this final preview, the full scope of ‘In the Safety of the Light’ comes into view: music spare and intimate in form but expansive in its spiritual ambitions. The album was recorded in spring and autumn 2025 at a private studio in Los Angeles, with most of the songs captured live as an ensemble.

After more than a decade exploring psychedelic pop, jazz, and electronic textures through her project Sis, most recently as Sis and the Lower Wisdom, Mason returned to the acoustic guitar she first began writing on as a teenager. The album moves through questions of how to live a spiritual life while staying fully human, drawing on her practice as an aspiring yogi, her life as a mother and wife, and her deep engagement with the teachings of Mother Mirra Alfassa. Sonically, it glows with 1970s British folk, echoing Catherine Howe and Fairport Convention, while opening into the ambient textures of Hiroshi Yoshimura and the cosmic folk of Beck. It’s a gorgeous, deeply felt return to her roots.
