Recorded over the winter, mastered this spring, our new self-titled EP is currently in production!



We're using painted eco-sleeves with hand-carved rubber stamps of original artwork by Dylan's mom!



The release date is July 17 and there will be a party at Valentine's. Details are coming soon and when we know...you'll know!

In the meantime, check out this live recording of Plans to Steal a Bird from the Ale House. It features Jack on euphonium and hand claps!

Hello, Goodbye.


Jack played euphonium, shaker, and handclaps at three Sea of Trees' shows over the course of two short months. From what I've heard, it really added a lot to our 'sound'. But his talents go far beyond that! As it turns out, Jack (under the name Barrow Burrow) writes one hell of a pop song. I'm hooked. From his Facebook page:

"Barrow Burrow’s name comes from the winter I discovered songwriting in Alaska. Barrow - the northernmost town in the United States - signifies my extreme relocation to the north. Burrow - an underground home a mammal lives in to protect itself from harsh weather - signifies the time I spent recording in my apartment waiting for the winter darkness to subside."

Jack is about to undergo another extreme relocation. He will be sorely missed. But, before he goes, we conned him into letting us learn his songs and be the backing band for a Barrow Burrow farewell show. Jack has never fronted a band before. And sadly, this will only happen once. So, don't miss it! These songs are FUN!

Join us next Tuesday (June 15) at Valentine's!.
AM Ghost and the Hoborchestra open.

We will try to start between 7 and 7:30, since it's a Tuesday.

There's an event on Facebook if you're into that sort of thing...Click Here!

Also, you can follow Jack's adventures...here. You will soon be hooked too.
