Walnut Whales

Walnut Whales is the self-distributed debut EP by American multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Joanna Newsom.

[2][7][8] Walnut Whales was initially not intended for public distribution, but at the suggestion of Noah Georgeson, Newsom's then-boyfriend as well as co-producer and recording engineer of the EP,[3] she burned several copies to sell at her early performances.

[9][10] Newsom's friend and bandmate in Golden Shoulders, Adam Kline, gave one of her CDs to singer-songwriter Will Oldham at a show in Nevada City.

Drag City signed Newsom and released her debut studio album The Milk-Eyed Mender in 2004.
