It's here - CDs of the new Brian Andrew Marek solo album Muddled Mirage just arrived today! Although the official release date is this Saturday, I have made it available for listening, downloading, and physical purchase on Bandcamp. (It won't hit the streaming services until the 2nd.) This is my first new album of songs since May of 2024 and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I will have copies of the disc with me this Friday when Isolationauts plays the Sinkhole. Check it out!

Don't forget - Brian Andrew Marek's new album Muddled Mirage is coming soon to compact disc, streaming, and Bandcamp! The official release date is 5/2/2026 (his birthday!), but the CD will probably arrive before then, and we will make it available on Bandcamp when it does. In stark contrast to the instrumentals that have dominated the Rubberstamp Records catalog in recent times, this is another in Brian's series of pop/rock/singer-songwriter confections that are surely topping the charts in some better part of the multiverse.

In the meantime, enjoy the "advance single" "Things in Motion"!
