I painted the palace sunset yellow
I ate half of a grapefruit, two hard boiled eggs and one scoop of goat yogurt every morning
I bought a carton of Camel cigarettes and smoked every single one
but then I quit and took up running

I wrote 67 love letters and received 5 replies
I napped in the bunkers
I lost my favorite shirt and 380 dollars in the wind
my camera broke and my shoes wore out

I knew it was me there
even when I looked like someone else
but I never forgot just how special the whole thing was

– Loretta Blue.

The album comes as a kind-of “best of” collection of “singing songs” from Loretta’s Museum originally recorded between 2014 and 2021.
