How the West Was One is an EP by the band Carbon Leaf that was released on their own label, Constant Ivy Music.

It is the band's first release since announcing on March 20, 2010 in a radio interview on WCNR that they were leaving Vanguard Records with the aim to release music more frequently and via media other than CD.

On July 13 Shawn Stewart of the radio station 103.7 the mountain released on her blog an email from Terry Clark that was directed to friends and family which contained links to download the EP for free.

Soon thereafter she received a request from Barry Privett, the lead singer, to remove the links.
