Postal Blue was formed in late 97, and in 2000 we released our first ep on Drive-In Records (http://www.microindie.com). That was followed ( though not very closely) by 2002's 'Weather Sensitive EP' on Shelflife Records (http://www.shelflife.com), and 2004's début album 'International Breeze' on Shelflife. Inkeeping with the mandatory 2-year gap between records, we release our new CD-EP 'Road to Happiness', on Humblebee Recordings. We promised to release records more often so expect a new ep in the following months. Meanwhile, enjoy our previous records, available on all the best mailorders in the U.S. and the world.
