I'm not going to lie.. the end made me a little weepy.

Throw Me the Statue quietly released a new ep this past Tuesday called Purpleface.

Purpleface features three brand new songs - "Ship," "Honey Bee," "That's How You Win" - and a reworking of the Moonbeams cut, "Written In Heart Signs, Faintly." The EP's standout track, "Ship," is an understated yet inventive gem that offers the listener yet another glimpse of Reitherman's prowess and range as a songwriter.

Last week our friend Dwellephant ,along with Justin Shady, released a new fancy book called "Missing the Boat". Take a tour of the book here and here. Anything by Dwellephant is worth having, so do yourself a favor and pick this up at your local bookstore or online.

I've sorta lost track of Ben Kweller over the years, but this new album is F'n Gold. Seriously.

Laura Gibson is set to release her latest effort on February 24th, called 'Beasts Of Seasons'. Laura wrote many of the songs from a house that overlooked the mossy tombstones one of Portland's oldest cemeteries. Many friends dropped by to lend a hand including Adam Selzer, Rachel Blumberg, & The Decemberists' Nate Query. Mostly recorded live to 16 tracks, there's a sense of urgency to the record that is instantly appealing.

Oh, and the killer album art is from artist Evan B Harris. Be sure to check out more of Evan's work here.
