Headband — Shirley Ladd & Bill Trochim

This is our music page — where we'll post the latest recordings as they come out of the studio, keep an archive of earlier versions for comparison, and eventually share finished tracks when the album is done. Think of it as a living document of songs in progress. Pull up a chair and have a listen.
