about
Since its formation in the fall of 2009, Washington Mile has been stretching the sounds of rock and roll into unique, captivating tunes. With major influences like Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bon Iver, and Blind Willie Johnson, it is no wonder that Washington Mile produces an eclectic sound, featuring original songs complete with an oh-so-familiar feel, yet have never been heard. Washington Mile captures their heart-stopping harmonies and fresh folk-rock sound in the form of their debut album, SIMPLE HEARTS. Produced by Jonathan Warman, who has also worked with other Seattle acts such as Mt. St. Helens Vietnam Band, The Globes, Fences and Hey Marseilles, SIMPLE HEARTS delivers a delicious dose of hand-clapping, foot-stomping sounds, exquisitely balanced with creative and soulful lyrics. Capturing the honesty of Washington Mile, SIMPLE HEARTS is enhanced by guest performances by members of Hey Marseilles, as well as other close friends, which results in a rich collection of sweet sounding melodies. Jason Martin of Starflyer 59, who has also worked with bands like Cold War Kids, Page France, and Cotton Jones, completed the mastering of the album. Artwork and design credit go to a promising Sam Owens, whose accomplishments can also be seen through his work with Cold War Kids and Dustin Kensrue. Set to release on April 9, 2010, SIMPLE HEARTS guarantees to be both poignant and propelling. Whether the album makes you want to get up and dance or tune out and relax, SIMPLE HEARTS
