In their own words:

“We can’t describe how proud we are of how this compilation turned out. It is amazing, definitely warrants repeated listening, and every track is solid. 77 minutes may sound a bit daunting, but throw it own when you’re hanging around the house this season. You will feel it.

This thing is FREE! We will try to keep a steady stream of these on the counter at Lunchbox Records, the coolest spot in town. They’re going fast, and as of now there are only 200 color copies. Because of cost, subsequent copies will be black and white. The art work KILLS. We will post the entire comp through a sharing site. In the next day or so. Feel free to download and share if you’re unable to get a physical copy. If you have any questions or special requests for copies, please message us here.

Merrie Kinnikinnik,
