Spine Readers are releasing their final album, Lab Results, as a limited run 12”vinyl LP. It features the music, art, and passion of dear, late, friend and bandmate Sean Meyer alongside Justin Maurer and Aaron Cramer.
This pre-order campaign is an opportunity for anyone who wants to snag the final installment in the Spine Readers catalog and a memento from a band that loved making music together. We are asking for $15 to cover the cost of pressing and are simultaneously campaigning to raise money for music education programs in the Bellingham Public Schools in honor of Sean.
Spine Readers spent most of 2023 writing and recording the songs on Lab Results, releasing singles bi-weekly in late Summer and Fall. Sean was committed to completing this album, despite a looming cancer diagnosis, and together Sean, Justin, and Aaron finished mixing, mastering, and sequencing the album with Sean’s full contribution to the entire process. His passing has made the release of this album especially significant and bittersweet for all involved.
Here are the details:
Lab Results will be released as a limited run 12” vinyl LP with digital download and digital bonus material. Bonus material will include previously unreleased songs featuring special collaborations with Sean’s friends, artwork, pictures, and demos.
The album artwork features Sean’s original illustrations and layout concept which was kindly realized by the Spine Readers Artwork Committee: Tyler Swank, Julia Skerry, and Chase Monster.
You can pre-order the record with digital download and bonus material for $15 AND you can optionally add on a donation amount to support local music education. Every dollar over $15 will be donated directly to Bellingham Public Schools music education programs in honor of Sean.
Estimated delivery date is mid July. This is subject to change as vinyl production can be slow and variable. Updates will be given, as available.
Thank you from the Spine Readers family.
