2008 Solo Release
Spring of 2008: It was time to release a solo album that fairly represents the solo act. "Yellow House" is essentially a scaled down semi-acoustic recording. But there is plenty of sonic intrigue with a sparse rhythm section and odd peripheral instruments. Thanks to the production aid of Ehren Ebbage, "Yellow House" measures up to any and all of the Shipe studio albums, even though it was recorded at home on antiquated gear.
