The Muffs - New Improved Kim Shattuck Demos LP

During the period leading up to 2004’s "Really Really Happy", The Muffs had been keeping a busy schedule of live performances as well as working through an ever-increasing list of songwriting demos from singer / guitarist Kim Shattuck. Once this group of songs was narrowed down, the band set to recording them for the album.

Appearing as bonus material on the expanded 2CD reissue of "Really Really Happy", "New Improved Kim Shattuck Demos" represents the only vinyl appearance of these 16 tracks, composed and performed entirely by Kim.

Available for Record Store Day, this 16-track, black vinyl LP is fully endorsed by Kim’s friends, family, and bandmates. It also contains a personal note to Kim from bandmate Ronnie Barnett. The world lost Kim to ALS in 2019, "New Improved Kim Shattuck Demos" shows the enigmatic singer, songwriter, and performer in her true creative element.

While The Muffs turned this material into their classic fifth album, it all began with Kim.
