Letters makes music for small spaces out of Olympia, Wa. We often try different arrangements, line-ups, and sounds, so when people ask, "what is letters?" it's sometimes hard to answer. It's different all the time. This our new cd! Scattered Areas Where a Thousand Follow in Likeness it's $5.
This is our tape, Insta it's $5. This is a comp called Well, I Don't See Why Not we put out and are on. it's $3.
and we really do love letters (and love letters): po box 2645 olympia, wa 98507
Thank you so much! I am really digging your stuff as well. I might go to the Polka Dot Dot Dot show but that all depends on my money situation. I'm running low. But hopefully I can go.
