**WOLCOT DEBUT ALBUM AVAILABLE***REVIEW'D**

THE CD HAS LANDED


ORDER/LISTEN HERE

I don't know how many (if any) of you would be interested in a physical copy, but there is a physical order option available through bandcamp if you want to get your hands on some suave looking faux vinyl CDs. They will start shipping on June 9th. Many thanks to all of you who have given advice, supported us, or purchased gear from me as the proceeds have all found their way to this album. We've been in the process for over a year and it really paid off. Let me know what you think.

Garrett

Well done, that was all very nice.

A strange sort of nostalgia for me, like I was back in high school when I first discovered The Mighty Lemondrops all over again. Fresh and youthful, lovely pop tunes you got there, Garrett.

Thanks -- you guys are too kind

Heres some shots of what the CDs look like. Generally a different label design for each CD,

The intro to Red Chair sounds like a car commercial, and I mean that in the best possible way.
The remainder of Red Chair is absolutely fantastic. A++

Love Wolcot, got an old demo of yours and listen to it fairly regularly.

'Red Chair' is great, & the chorus is sublime... like lying on a Desert Island with a Beer in hand.

Giving the rest a listen now.

Mad skills for a bunch of young guns and genuinely great songs; really really impressive stuff. Hope you guys go all the way.

Did you produce it yourself? Very tight.

I like the series of tubes on the cover too :lol:

Merci beaucoup!

We went to a local basement studio to record/mix.

Beautiful stuff, man. I was finally able to give this a listen this earlier and it was the perfect antidote to a drab Monday morning trapped in a temperature-controlled, fluorescent-lit, colorless white lab at work.

A tight, obviously-well-rehearsed performance from everyone. Flawless vocals, a great instrumental arrangement with plenty of space, lovely-sounding guitars and bass throughout, confidently powerful drums, and a wonderful mix on everything with great dynamic range.

It's been a great journey hearing you guys grow and you should all be very proud of this.

Thanks a ton dude! I've heard the songs so much at this point that I only hear the things that I could change. For instance, we played the whole thing without a click track as it started as a demo, so the tempo is pretty inconsistent in a bunch of songs, but it was definitely a great learning process and the next one will be infinitely easier.
