Of course, if you feel guilty about downloading without paying and you like what you hear on this site, you can calculate your pleasure/drudgery ratio to determine how much of your hard earned scratch to donate via the PayPal links on the album pages or at the purchase page here. This is our little experiment in musical obscurity meeting optimistic capitalism (conspicuously, of course.) There's also the Terciopelo Handmade page for music from other bands that may or may not have included members of the harvey girls.

We've put a new, free EP on the site. It's titled "An Uncloudy Day". We're thinking of releasing several free EPs over the year, so keep an eye out for them. I'm sure we'll release some stuff you can actually pay for as well.

twittering, facebooking, myspacing, blogging tends to lead to this not being updated regularly. sorry. here's an interview and a few songs with hiram from KUPS in Tacoma. We'll more than likely be releasing some music soon.
