Andrea Maxand has known ever since she was a small child that she wanted to be
“definitely someone to look out for.”

given money in exchange for her forceful, uncompromising guidance.
After productive but contentious stints with the Church and Avon,
a singer/songwriter solo project was the obvious
choice—Andrea struck out on her own with her 2001 debut Angel Hat
(available on Montesano Records).
She has since developed a steady following, working in various permutations
with Chris Walla, Jason McGerr and Nick Harmer of
Death Cab for Cutie, with producer and guitarist Charles R. Keller, and
with the new band she’s tentatively called Andrea Maxand’s Band.
But favorable reviews in her native Seattle, from press and fans alike, were not
enough for Andrea—no. Having set her sights on an ascension to fame and fortune
that would evoke the name of the holy mother herself, Andrea could be satisfied with nothing
less. It was inevitable that she should sooner or later collaborate with
Conor Oberst on a hooky ballad featuring a crisp, motown-era
arrangement and delicious boy/girl harmonies—the limited edition single
“Jesus Died (for our Love),” due out later this year on
Subpop.
Likewise was it only natural that she should turn to
Ghostweed Press to back her
new release Where the
Words Go with our our carefree propensity for
casual acts of libel and our transglobal network of brand-strength, advertising
muscle and ruthless death squads.

Recorded with McGerr, Harmer and Keller at Avast! Studios in January 2003,
the album is slated for release May 4, 2004, when it will be available
on the Internet, in record stores and on the merchandise table at
Andrea Maxand’s Band’s epoch-defining live shows.
We wish you the best of luck in surviving the onslaught.
