WETNURSE album #3

Our third album is in the works. Instruments are all tracked and vocals are now in progress. The producer is our own bassist Ryan Jones (who also plays in Today Is The Day with me) and the studio is our practice space in Brooklyn.

I am thrilled to see this album take shape. It has been a long road.

Our second album, 2008's Invisible City, is available HERE.
