Back in 2007, San Antonio, TX band Girl in a Coma released their first full length album, Both Before I’m Gone, whose cover featured a beautiful painting by Kathie Olivas! The Blot had never heard of this album before, so I was blown away when I realized it featured Kathie’s artwork. Later this month Both Before I’m Gone will be rereleased as part of Record Store Day 2013, and will be available on vinyl (record that is) for the very first time. While it’s not the type of vinyl we’re accustomed to seeing Kathie’s artwork on, I thought it was pretty cool nevertheless!
The Record Store Day 2013 Exclusive Both Before I’m Gone LP by Girl in a Coma (featuring cover artwork by Kathie Olivas) is pressed on a 12” blue vinyl record, has a limited edition run size of just 470 pieces and will retail for $17.99. Hit up your local record store for RSD 2013 on April 20th to try to get your hands on this beautiful release (although I’ve never heard the music so listen at your own risk).
