Album Notes:
This is our first album, recorded back when the band name was still spelled Sometimes Why.
The difference between the black and silver editions is that one has a song with explicit lyrics on it (the original, black edition). The silver is the same record with that track removed. Some people we know buy both!
Originally intended as a rehearsal recording for our own listening, we decided we liked it enough to share it with the world. Recorded with one or two microphones in twelve hours, this disc has a live tenderness that would be hard for us to beat even now that we've been playing these songs for years. Check it out.
