Well Morph-friends,

It took us a while to finish, but we got it out before our predicted release date of 2026…

We are happy to announce the release of our fresh new recording, A New Low!!!!

    Produced in collaboration with Pete Weiss of Verdant Studio, recorded at Armory Sound, Dimension Sound Studios and Milk Row Cemetery, with art work by Lisa Deupree; songs by some our favorite artists, including Brian Eno, Latin Playboys and Dock Boggs. Of course some Morphine chestnuts by Mr. Sandman, including a sample you can stream right over here ——->

Our auxiliary drummer Jeff Allison played on two tracks and produced the opening Wind Up Radio. And our dear friend, Malian musician Boubacar Diabaté who sings on an alternate version of the track Renouveau/Daman N’Diaye, which will be released as a single later this year; his voice is sampled for the album version.

We are our own worst critics, and we are really very happy with the way this thing turned out. Really, REALLY happy. We actually like listening to it! So buy the CD on our music page or download it at CDBaby now!
Thank you! (More to come later, including streaming, ITunes, and vinyl!)
