Ten Years
Ten years ago today I released my third album Guess Who’s a Mess! It was the hardest of my records to finish and it took many years to get over the disappointment from it for a bunch of dumb reasons.
So I wish I could go back in time and tell my younger self that in ten years I’d be mailing hundreds of Guess Who’s a Mess vinyls to people all over the world. Thanks to everyone who supported the crowdfunding campaign to remaster and release it on vinyl — I think it sounds better than it did and I’m happy that most of the regrets I had about its shortcomings have evolved into pride at having finished it back then at all. I doubt that would have happened without all your encouragement and support over these years so I’m very grateful.
Also my huge, huge thanks to Rob Cosh (@thehipcola) for his help mixing and producing it, Justin Perkins (@mystery_room_mke) for the fantastic digital and analog remaster, Estera Lazowska for the rad laser deer cover artwork and Matthew Pfahlert (@the.silent.p) for the graphic design that tied it all together. And of course my thanks to Ben Mullin (@benjaminmulligram), Justin Purvis (@justinlpurvis) and Steve Gaw (@stevengaw2019) for all their contributions and for bringing these songs to life at live shows.
Love you all,
Brad
