Dusk is the third extended play by American musician Mxmtoon. The EP was self-released by the artist (and distributed by AWAL) on October 1, 2020 and is the sequel to her earlier EP Dawn. It was promoted by the singles "Bon Iver" and "OK On Your Own", the latter featuring Canadian pop singer Carly Rae Jepsen. The EPs were originally going to be promoted through the Dusk & Dawn tour across North America in summer 2020, though due to the COVID-19 pandemic that did not occur.[2]

Dork[1]

Dusk sees Mxmtoon return to the simpler folk sound of her debut The Masquerade, after Dawn's detour into straightforward pop.[1] Jamie MacMilan of Dork said that Dusk "feels instead like a warm hug" in the face of the COVID-19 lockdown which inspired many of its songs.[1]
