The 1st release in the album series - and an attempt to record songs written as early as 2006. Pink Sleeves was the original moniker used in the early days of Myspace, with a few demos recorded under the name. Early recordings of these songs were made available on 'Songs For Sasha (The Alternate Pink Sleeves)', the fourth installment in The Grammer Years (Revisited) box set. Pink Sleeves, the album, presents eight of the foremost songs written as a teenager. Leonard Cohen, Daniel Johnston and several Bright Eyes covers were leftover tracks from these sessions that later appeared on 'Haymaker Hideaway (Covers 2004-2023)', the fifth installment in The Grammer Years (Revisited) box set.
