Self-Titled CDs

After 18 months of playing together, Courtyard released their first self-titled album. Spinning -- reborn from Max's solo album Tug of War -- was recorded at Michael's audition in a practice room. Windows was written and recorded over the Summer, before the band ever played it together. Recorded in closets, dorm lounges, and living rooms; mixed on a laptop; stickers hand cut, and CDs manually burned -- this product is 100% DIY.
