Short Stories [2006]

by The Extraordinaires

supported by

joemobones VERY difficult to pick a favorite. These guys are great writers and it shows through the storytelling within the songs. I'm in love with the song structure too; very catchy tunes and lyrics.

It's a wonderful album full of ballads and I love it. Favorite track: Chelsea.

J Sporadic, clever, and catchy. This album zips around from idea to idea while still feeling cohesive. One of my favorite albums, period. Favorite track: Neighborhood Watch.

jeni williamson This was everyone that I knew, back in 2006. Favorite track: The Warehouse Song.

ham Hey Jay, this song (Nest on a Rooftop), along with "A Midnight Waltz in A Major," moves me a lot Favorite track: Nest on a Rooftop.
