The series will be available digitally at DSPs, released by Capitol Records, and on 12" vinyl via The Decemberists' own label, Y.A.B.B. Records/Jealous Butcher Records.
The band is presently recording its next full-length album with Tucker Martine, who produced Always The Bridesmaid: A Singles Series and co-produced The Decemberists' fourth full-length album, 2006's acclaimed The Crane Wife.
