Title - From Now To OK (Vinyl LP Expanded w/ CD)
Artist - Springhouse

Originally released as a limited-edition CD in 2008 by Independent Project Records, this new expanded edition will be released on vinyl, CD and digital formats and includes a bonus disc of previously unreleased demos and live tracks.

From Now to OK captures Springhouse exploring a more acoustic, folk rock-indebted sound; still showing their trademark flair for dreamy melodic textures, the ever-Anglophile Springhouse can be heard embracing the late sixties influence of Nick Drake and The Beatles.

This is the very first time that it has ever been released on vinyl! This newly-expanded edition of From Now to OK also now comes with a bonus CD of previously unreleased demos and live recordings.

Preserved in a beautiful custom-cut Unipak-style gatefold LP jacket from master designer Bruce Licher, this is a brilliant Transparent Orange and Black Vinyl release.

The new CD addition has been remastered by Josh Bonati and also includes the second bonus disc of demos and rarities, packaged with a folding insert in an oversized CD pocket folder letterpress-printed by hand at Independent Project Press.

Side A:
1. Passion [2:46]
2. Moving Van [1:46]
3. Time Runs Out [3:11]
4. No More Yesterdays [3:51]
5. Grateful [4:51]
6. Pomegranate Tree [2:30]

Pulling the vinyl record from its plush, expertly crafted sleeve, putting it on the turntable, dropping the needle, we first get to hear the languishing folk beauty of Passion and the impassioned mid-tempo rocker Moving Van and they are backed by the gentle balladry of Time Runs Out, the psych-hued softness of No More Yesterdays, the airy Grateful and some amiable storytelling within Pomegranate Tree.

Side B:
7. Sea and Rain [4:21]
8. Never Impossible [3:23]
9. Mercedes Marxist [3:51]
10. Snapshot [2:57]
11. 10 Count [4:26]
12. Anew [3:21]

Flipping the vinyl LP over and we next get the fluttering rock of Sea and Rain and the acoustic guitar rummage of Never Impossible and they are in turn backed seamlessly by the strident indie rocker Mercedes Marxist, the melodic Snapshot, with the music rounding out on the low slung yearn of 10 Count, closing on the emotive Anew.

Bonus CD of Unreleased Demos & Rarities:
13. Passion (Instrumental) [2:49] 14. Time Runs Out (Instrumental) [3:15] 15. No More Yesterdays (Instrumental) [3:52 16. Sea and Rain (Instrumental) [4:21] 17. Mercedes Marxist (Instrumental) [3:41] 18. Snapshot (Instrumental) [2:58] 19. Passion (Demo) [2:50] 20. Sea and Rain (Demo) [4:16] 21. Rescue Work (Mercedes Marxist - Demo) [3:39] 22. No One Has to Know [2:34] 23. Open Your Eyes (Live) [3:16] 24. Passion (Live) [2:38] 25. Moving Van (Live) [1:40] 26. Enslave Me (Live) [3:13] 27. Alley Park (Live) [4:42].
