The latest artist to join the Fading Ways family is a classic songwriter in the Cohen / Dylan / Cave vein, with influences ranging from gospel to the very heaviest alternative (ex. David Eugene Edwards' 16 Horsepower and Woven Hand). Mazgani hails from Setubal, Portugal and has released a debut album, Song of the new Heart, as well as a new EP, Tell the People, in his domestic market.

Vogue describes him as "Peering into the abyss,  Mazgani has an incendiary romanticism and twilight chic - something of a decadent gentlemen, a likable devil and spectral cowboy" (Luis Maio, Vogue Portugal, trans.)

Fading Ways Finland is proud to release the international version of the Tell the People EP, "Ladies and Gentlemen, introducing... Mazgani", which features the complete Tell the People EP (produced by Dead Combo's Pedro Goncalves) plus 5 tracks from the debut album and an unreleased bonus track. This release will mark the Fading Ways label group's 66th released title - Sounding the way it does, all route 66, it is all too fitting that its catalogue number is fwm066.
