Saint Milkweed is the haunting, minimal debut by Portland Oregon's indie-folk artist of the same name. Armed with just a guitar, Saint Milkweed delivers twelve original songs with a rare authenticity. Elements of folk, classical, blues, and bluegrass bleed together.

The album was recorded in December of 2007 and February of 2008 by Scott Solter at Tiny Telephone in San Francisco, and mastered by Billy Stull at Masterpiece Mastering.

The album is available for purchase now, either as mp3 or as a CD with an eco-friendly letterpressed recycled wallet. We highly recommend the CD over the mp3s simply because the enhanced quality really allows these 12 tracks to shine.
