I won't be able to ship any orders while I'm away on the Advance Base + Lisa/Liza January tour. All orders placed between from January 14-29 will ship January 30. Digital downloads will still be delivered instantly.
Thanks to Impose for premiering this beautiful new Lisa/Liza music video, directed by Greg Jamie (in collaboration with Kelly Sue Rioux and Gelsey Amelia).
"Wander" is taken from the CD/LP Deserts of Youth, available HERE.
The 4th vinyl pressing of Julie Byrne's Rooms With Walls and Windows is in stock & ready to ship!

Dear Nora, Katy Davidson's long-since-retired indie pop/folk project, has announced the reissue of their 2004 classic fan favorite, Mountain Rock, on vinyl for the first time ever. In recent years there has been a newfound interest in the music of Dear Nora, thanks in part to the Girlpool song titled "Dear Nora" and Joyce Manor name dropping the band as one of the influences for their new album, Cody. The Mountain Rock reissue is available for pre-order now and due out January 13th via Orindal Records.
We're also offering limited edition Dear Nora t-shirts! They're also available for pre-order here.
Dear Nora will also be reforming for a January west coast tour in support of the reissue. All dates here!
Orindal is currently restructuring its web store postage calculator to accommodate the US post office's most recent (slightly reduced) international shipping rates for larger orders, but for now, we're offering a 2 LP bundle at a discounted price that more accurately represents the actual price of shipping two vinyl LPs overseas.
Overseas customers can now order the Lisa/Liza & Hello Shark LPs (or any two Orindal LPs) together for the grand total of $52, shipping included ($5 cheaper than adding each LP to your cart separately).
The same $5 discount applies to customers in the US & Canada as well!
Vinyl is delayed until September 30, but you can order your copy now & receive an instant digital download HERE.
Lots of great music on the new, free Orindal sampler! GET ONE HERE.
“Century Woods,” the opening track from Lisa/Liza's upcoming debut album, sounds of another time. That is not to say it’s
an anachronism. In fact, singer/songwriter Liza Victoria’s dreamy,
psychedelic folk fits in well with 2016’s class of forward-thinking Cosmic Americana troubadours.
So maybe it’s more apt to say that “Century Woods” exists outside of
time entirely. Victoria opens the song in a drifting, half-existent time
signature, her careful, close-mic’d guitar lapping gently like sleepy
waves at high tide. Her vocals reverberate powerfully without an ounce
of reverb. The song’s dry production—seemingly no overdubs or effects at
all—actually makes it sound even more mysterious: the magic is entirely
in her performance. Six minutes in, as the song’s jazzy,
Karen-Dalton-on-ambien melody begins to settle into your brain, it just
kind of
ends.
The last sentence is left unfinished, the chord progression unresolved.
Victoria’s haunting, imagistic dream logic is only beginning to reveal
itself. -
