CONFESSIONS OF A WOULD-BE HIPSTER

New CD Today!!! Waiting to return to New Orleans.

Basin Street Records is excited that Theresa Andersson’s new CD is here today. It is called Hummingbird, Go! and we hope you will buy it. It is available from your favorite retailer, whether it be a CD or a digital download.

We are waiting on power, internet access and open post offices in New Orleans to return from evacuation from Hurricane Gustav. We are fully operational from our evacuation location.
New Orleans and its levee system fared well, but it will take a bit of time for the debris to be picked up, the power to be restored, and the 2 million Louisiana evacuees to return. Schools are set to reopen on Monday.

We hope to see you on Friday at The Republic in New Orleans for Theresa Andersson’s CD release party.
