Acclaimed singer-songwriter Ruston Kelly joined us to talk about his “Mending Song (Piano Version),” a reinterpretation of his single released today through Rounder Records.

This stripped-down rendition is a preview to his upcoming EP, Weakness, Etc, which gathers seven tracks recorded alongside his acclaimed third studio album, 2023’s The Weakness.

Among the collection are other released songs like “Heaven Made The Darkness” and the emotive “Belly of the Beast,” both already available across all digital platforms.

Set to release on Friday, March 22nd, Weakness, Etc is now open for pre-saving.

To celebrate the EP’s launch, Kelly is going on a solo acoustic tour starting March 27th at A&R Music Bar in Columbus, OH, and continuing across North America until early May.
