"Faces in the Firelight" is Cleveland's first outing since La Luz's 2022 single "Endless Afternoon" and is accompanied by a Two Seraphim Two Seraphim-directed video.

"The song is about watching Will tend to a huge burn pile that was still going long after dark and realising that out there in the dark field he looked like the ultrasound image we had on our fridge," she explains. "I was thinking that the greatest act of love might be to wait for someone. To say, 'I’ll be here whenever you’re done, whenever you’re ready'."

Manzanita will follow Cleveland's 2019 solo album Night of the Worm Moon, and La Luz's 2021 self-titled album, and features Abbey Blackwell (Alvvays, La Luz) on bass, Olie Eshleman on pedal steel, and Will Sprott on keyboards, dulcimer, glockenspiel, harpsichord and synthesizer.

Cleveland says of the album, "The songs were all written while I was pregnant (side A) or shortly after my son's birth in that weird everything-has-quietly-but-monumentally-shifted state (side B)."
