about

Retreat & Preservation presents ten previously unreleased My Laundry Life songs which were recorded between 1997 and 2008. It easily could have been twenty or more, but I decided to be strict. Any song I considered 'skip-able' in preparation for this compilation consequently was left out. I am pleasantly surprised to have learned how much I still like some of the earliest songs and hence included 'A Little Lost' and 'The Familiar Hoax' from 1997 here. The audio quality is definitely lacking, but that's how it was a long, long time ago. Hope you might enjoy these tunes from the vaults.
