I'll send an official notice of the single and the album later, but ... Yes!!
Over the last decade, I have often inflicted Mean Reversion's one-of-a-kind music on friends. My absolute favorite in their first album is now available for streaming as a single: smarturl.it/blessingofmybirt… @MeanRevMusic
