Review By Glen Parkes
Suzanne Jarvie’s Caterpillar / Polonium EP is quiet, emotional, and kind of sneaks into your head without you noticing. These two tracks are the first taste of her upcoming album Mother’s Day, and they already feel really personal. Knowing that her music comes from real loss and tough experiences makes the songs hit harder, even though they’re soft and gentle.
“Caterpillar” feels like a song about change and healing. It’s slow, warm, and almost dreamlike, like you’re half awake listening to it. Her voice is calm but full of feeling, and it makes you want to listen closely. “Polonium” is darker and more mysterious. It still has folk and Americana roots, but it also feels different, almost like something floating in space.
What’s cool is how her songwriting isn’t stuck in one style. There’s a mix of light and shade, and it feels honest, not forced. These songs feel like thoughts written down late at night. If this is what mother’s day is going to sound like, it’s definitely worth waiting for when it comes out in February 2026.
