Westport, Connecticut is home to Westport Library, where Verso Studios is located. Now, they announced Verso Records: One Volume, which comes out on June 3. They claim it is the first album recorded, produced, and released in a public library. This is a collection of music by local musicians, including Problem Kids Today. Check out the tracklist below.
“I feel proud to live in a community that supports a library that, in turn, celebrates local up-and-coming and established musicians,” Chris Frantz of Talking Heads said in a statement. “Continuing its legacy of cultural innovation, The Westport Library became the first public library to ever record, produce and release a vinyl album, and it’s pretty cool!”
