WIN SIGNED TEST PRESS VINYL FROM THE GOOD GRACES
To celebrate the release of the Good Graces' new album Close to the Sun, we are giving away a FREE signed test pressing of their vinyl record! All of our releases are pressed by Rainbo Records in Canoga Park, California. Before they begin manufacturing our orders, they send us four (4) copies of each release to review in advance, just to be sure everything is a-ok for production; these copies are called test pressings, and they are the very first copies of the release (very rare). We decided to have a little fun with the Good Graces and give one of these four test pressings away to one lucky fan! Not only did they sign their test pressing that we are giving away, but the band also did their own rendition of their cover art!
If you want to win this one-of-a-kind copy of the Good Graces Close to the Sun test pressing, all you need to do is sign up to be a member of the Friends & Family of Fort Lowell Records in the form below. We will be emailing our Friends & Family exclusively in the coming weeks for details on how to win this little gem! Stay tuned!

The digital release of the album on outlets such as iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, etc. will be available on September 30th, while the vinyl record will be in stores on October 28th. You will also be able to order the vinyl record directly from us here on our website.

NAÏM AMOR IS IN DA' HIZZOUSE (THAT MEANS "HOUSE," MOM)
The test pressing for Naïm Amor's Hear the Walls is in, and we could not be more excited! Naïm has been one of our favorite artists from Tucson, AZ, ever since first settling there in 2006, and it is truly an honor to now have the opportunity to be the first to hear his latest recording on vinyl record before anyone else. Hear the Walls is potentially Naïm's greatest work to date, and we are looking forward to presenting this album to you on October 28th. But for now, we have to make sure that the centering is accurate with the pressing, and that there are no surface noises. Stay tuned! (Many thanks to Rainbo Records and Golden Mastering!)
