Mama Zu have shared the second single, “Safe Place To Stay” off their upcoming album “Quilt Floor” out February 23rd via Thirty Tigers.

Linwood Regensburg shares this about the song: “Part of me feels like releasing this as an album teaser/single is a huge mistake. It’s pretty slow-moving, a bit cold and empty, initially. Might even borderline cross into adult contemporary territory at times? I doubt anyone would play this on the radio…though maybe Delilah would dig it? I could be wrong. Is this pitch selling you yet?”

Linwood Regensburg said this about the album: “After she died, I didn’t want to touch it. I didn’t want to play the songs or listen to the songs, let alone finish them. It just seemed like such a daunting task with a lot of layers, there was a lot of work left to do, but then there was also this exhausting underlying emotional component that pops in and hangs around the moment I’d open a session. By 2020 I felt ready to finish what we had started, both for her sake and for my own sanity level. I was the only person left with this project. It was a way of spending time with her, and kind of the only capacity in which I could. But then, I was also left with a lot of creative choices without her. Even though I had played most of the instruments, it had still been a totally collaborative thing; if there was a part I played that she didn’t like, she was clear about that. If someone’s gone, you can still talk to them, but you can only assume what their feedback might be. So I was stuck with a lot of musical choices that I’d be working under the context of, I hope you like what I did here.”
