Fresh from producing another baby (June Elizabeth Hammel, born on the 4th of January) to add to the cutest family in existence, Kori and Jason are giving us a new Mates Of State record next month. Tell us about it, Mister Hammel!

"Dude, it's coming fast, Finally! The record is called "Re-Arrange Us" and it will hit the stores May 20th. We recorded it all over this fine country, with 3 amazing producers: At Tiny Telephone in San Francisco, CA with Chris Walla, at Tarquin Studios in Bridgeport, CT with Peter Katis, and at Public Hi-Fi in Austin, TX with Jim Eno. Then, we shaped, massaged, and mixed all the pieces together again with Peter Katis. This sh*t is for real."

The tracklisting reads as follows:

'Get Better'
'Now'
'My Only Offer'
'The Re-Arranger'
'Jigsaw'
'Blue and Gold Print'
'Help Help'
'You Are Free'
'Great Dane'
'Lullaby Haze'

If, by any chance, this dull Wednesday afternoon is still getting you down, here's their first kid, Magnolia, with her own take on a new song.
