We believe we've got a bunch of cracking original songs, and a small local label (Foghorn Records) agrees with us. You can hear demo's of our songs here :

Foghorn is going to publish and distribute our music, but we need to raise quite a bit of money for the actual recording and production ... our goal is $15,000.
That covers studio time, engineer, mixing, mastering, extra musicians (brass, strings and various other things we can't play ourselves), artwork, and album manufacture.
We'll end up with a gorgeous 10 track album.
Basically we're asking our community to get behind this by pre-buying the album, but there are other ways we hope to raise the funds - you can book the band to play an intimate gig in your home or at a party, and you can even book a private sunset cruise and gig in a yacht.
We will be eternally grateful for any support you give us. You'll be invited to a special launch event as well as being the first to get your hands our debut album.
The more people that know about this the better of course, so please share our project far and wide :-). This site allows you to do that as well.
