A Handful of Fingers

About Me

A group of friends in Los Angeles set out to create a concept album based on the album cover Lauren made. Incidentally, each of us experienced during the recording of our album the deaths of pets. Iguanas, turtles, cats, rabbits... just everything. Call it bad luck, call it curse of the album cover- just don't laugh. It ain't funny.

A few of us have moved on to greater things... things like being an au pair in Italy and the daily grind of grad school. The others of us have retained our mediocrity and gaze ever downward.

We played a few shows we were given too much money for, played at metro stations for cigarettes and quarters, and have sounded much better and worse live than these recordings.

We recorded in a "studio" garage that serves part time as an opium den and if you listen closely to some of our recordings, you might even hear a bed squeaking.
