اللهم اغفر لي خطيئتي يوم الدين

Asthmatic Kitty Records is an independent record label that was co-founded by Lowell Brams and his stepson, singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, in 1999. Since its founding, AKR has released albums by a variety of artists, including Lily & Madeleine, My Brightest Diamond and Helado Negro, and is currently home to Sufjan Stevens, Angelo De Augustine, Denison Witmer and The Welcome Wagon. 

Asthmatic Kitty was named after Sara, an orange and white tabby who wandered out of the woods pregnant and starving near Holland, Michigan in 1994. For fourteen years she brought joy as a beloved friend to Lowell, enjoying a happy life despite her initial hardships. Her asthma improved after moving west to New Mexico and Wyoming, where she lived out her days as an asthmatic kitty in name only.

I’m often browsing for new music and sharing it with friends so I thought it would be a good idea to continue doing so while putting it out there for other/more people to enjoy. Although the selected tracks might be part of note worthy body of work, they could also just be a single track that caught my ear in passing. Either way, consider sharing on any selections, artists or labels you might like and/or here discover. As usual, thank you to anyone reading this and giving two shits, it’s sincerely appreciated. Sincerely & emphatically yours, D-
