Book + Trailer + Music: Breathe Owl Breathe - The Listeners / These Train Tracks

After years of writing one-off children's stories, Micah Middaugh has created a limited edition canvas-covered book that reads from the outside covers inward, ending at the center. And in the middle, slipped between a hand cranked copper block printed sleeve, are two new Breathe Owl Breathe songs pressed onto black 70 gram 7" vinyl. A project that took close to 3 years to complete, and all within the confines of his home studio (Cavern Lantern Wonder Welding) in the Jordan River Valley of Northern Michigan. Every single cover, page, sleeve, and block was made in Michigan.
