Returning with their third single, Porch Light, Chloe Marks & The Mayhem unveil a bold new chapter in their musical journey. Known for their high-energy performances and raw storytelling, the Brisbane-based outfit step into a deeper emotional space with this release — one that showcases not just their musical versatility, but their vulnerability as artists.

Written by frontwoman Chloe Marks, Porch Light draws from her own experiences of heartbreak, loneliness, and the quiet unraveling of a relationship. “Porch Light was written about feeling overwhelmingly lonely in a relationship — it was very close to home,” Chloe shares. The song captures that haunting in-between space of love fading, where you find yourself waiting for something — or someone — that might never return.

Musically, Porch Light sees The Mayhem stretching beyond their familiar country/Americana roots, weaving in influences from alternative and folk-rock to build an atmosphere that mirrors the song’s emotional depth. The result is a powerful and cinematic track that balances melancholy and strength — tender lyrics carried by sweeping guitars and heartfelt delivery.

After a huge year of shows, recording sessions, and creative growth, Porch Light marks a defining moment for the band. It’s a reminder that Chloe Marks & The Mayhem aren’t afraid to evolve, experiment, and lay their hearts bare — proving that even in moments of heartbreak, there’s beauty, honesty, and connection waiting under the glow of the porch light.
