It’s hard for me to overstate the satisfaction this EP delivered, but moreover it came with a new promise of possibility and evidence that the magic was still happening. At once an old friend and a new love, composed of what I wanted and providing what I needed. The first bloom of spring-time, the hint of fulfillment for the dusty promise that was Happenstance. Introduced with a poem, delivered to the fans direct and digital. Two and a half years had passed since Happenstance, I felt certain there must be another studio album due out soon.

Not Arctic Circle frozen tundra desolation winter, now you’re just being melodramatic. Picture, if you will, two years of winter. – September 22, 2006, Rachael begins punishing me for my lack of vision. – September 21, 2006, I realize how unbelievably great it is. – June 8, 2004, Rachael Yamagata releases Happenstance.
