From Georgia English:

We really don’t deserve Josh Preston. He took it upon himself to create a video on YouTube with both the artwork and music. Also. He played every instrument, encouraged me, and put up with this bat for a whole year.
Set a reminder to watch Illustrated Book Album Pain and Power (premiering at midnight) in its entirety. Thank you Josh ❤️

From our friends My Politic!
“So grateful for the support from folks who have already pre-ordered the Deluxe vinyl!! We added two brand new songs to the end of "SSPIP". A song about Nashville's last year and half called "Driving Around" & "Hope In America", which is almost certainly a misnomer... You can get a digital copy of the entire "Deluxe Edition" instantly, when you pre order your vinyl. Follow the link below! Thank y'all so much for supporting small time big hearted operations like ours. Without y'all, we'd just be singing to ourselves! “
