   About The New & Very Welcome
* Hello, my name is Jess. I have released a lot of music. None of it is important, but you can download some of it below.

PURCHASE THIS ALBUM FOR $6


God, Save The Ampersand!
The acoustic follow up EP to Drowning In It! released 9/13/08. The first (and most likely last) pressing is limited to 20 CDs, so get one while you can!

It comes in 4 colors, red, pink, white and orange, each with a different photo on the front! If you do not specify a color, I will send any random color. International shipping is possible, just send me a message first before you purchase.





DOWNLOAD THESE ALBUMS FOR FREE


A Collection: 2004-2007
This release includes What You Say Can And Will Be Held Against You, The Acoustic EP, This Was Made To Make You, and All My Friends Are Too Indie Rock For Me as well as various demos and songs from other projects I have been in leading up to The New & Very Welcome.
Super Lo-Fi!


Drowning In It!
This is the proper full length. It was supposed to be pressed and released for sale but instead it turned out to be an internet release and the culmination of a certain period in my life. Check it out.

you are giving back to those who have given back. yeah. it kinda counts. i am notorious for downloading music. i hardly ever pay for it ever, so i agree with you. i feel kinda better about it. plus, most vinyl comes with little fun inserts. i love that, it makes it that much more personal and intricate.

haha, do it, yo. its a good thing to put on there. sadly, i have only had a few people talk to me about it.. not enough people have vinyl, its sad =[

yeah, i always grow to hate my own songs. but i think that is part of being a musician, constantly striving for change and perfection.

Sep 22 2008 4:44 AM

for sure. i am so critical of my music. i am fine as long as i am not listening to it... when i do listen, however, i am so aware of all the intricate errors haha.
high five, atom bomb





Sep 22 2008 4:41 AM

fantastic. i have already listened to it about five times in a row. i may post a bulletin in like four seconds and demand everyone check it out.

Sep 22 2008 4:33 AM

nothing yet. our old ep is up for download in the player for now. we are going to sell the cd-r copies of our 'the stars, an escape' ep when we finish that. they will probably be no more than five dollars, because we like to keep it simple haha.

are you going to put the saddest landscape cover on a release? you so should, yo.

Sep 22 2008 4:22 AM
