The Ladybug EP, released in Winter of 2011, was a precursor to Devlin's second full-length album, For Whom the Angels Named in Spring 2011 and a follow-up to her debut full-length, All Are Relative, released in winter of 2008.
The Ladybug 7" vinyl was released as part of Fireside Follies #3 at Brooklyn Fire Proof, NY on December 18th 2010, along with a live-action animated video for the EP title track, Ladybug , a collaboration between Devlin and NY based animator Preston Spurlock.
The event received a write-up in Bushwick Daily where, Senior Editor and Founder, Katarina Hybenova wrote...
"When Eric Nelson and Mike Lala, the curators, introduced Elizabeth Devlin, a singer and an autoharp angelic tunes player, I felt a little bit like I was taken back in time to San Francisco in the 1950s, I swear I nearly stood up from my chair and yelled: 'Yeah, guys, let’s do it; let’s merge the arts together; let’s get rid of the concept of the forms of art and let’s get mutually inspired.'"
The Ladybug EP vinyl includes three songs: Phoenix, Ladybug, Ancient Voices on a limited vinyl pressing of 500, in a White & Gold Foil Jacket, signed and numbered by artist, and also comes with the digital download.
The digital download includes the entire album with one additional bonus track: Phoenix, Ladybug, Ancient Voices, and Gatsby (bonus track).

lyrics
where do the ladybugs go when white winter brings the snow tell me so that i might know i think they sprout wings like birds and fly away leaving with sun rays to live another day tell me daddy
where do all of your thoughts slip if they never leave your lips contained they will make your heart flip use your hands and arms to show what you can’t say else these thoughts leak out your eyes and fall away tell me baby do you love me tell me tell me
what if time is not a thing in which we are existing futures past is presenting would you rush off to your next sensation if you’d arrived at your destination tell me baby
where do the ladybugs go when white winter brings the snow tell me so i might follow
