Solo halling dance set to a new composition written in the style of a specific set of Norwegian fiddle repertoire in the tuning FDAE. This tuning, and it's repertoire, are referred to as 'gorrlaus,' which translates to 'very loose' or 'damned loose,' as the lowest string of the fiddle is much more slack than in standard tuning. This new tune is performed on a slack-tuned guitar to follow suit.

Note from Laurel Premo:

"The meaning of my title here, “Ma’s Maw” is simply referring to some great throat of the earth herself."
