The Blakes LP is The Blakes' first commercially available album (previous releases were independent and available at shows etc...), originally self-released in 2006. After gaining national exposure due to radio play on Seattle-based independent radio station, KEXP, the band signed to local label Light In The Attic. On their new record label, The Blakes LP was remastered and re-released with new album cover art and two additional tracks, "Magoo" and "Run".
