Recorded in 2007, Aloha is the second full length from The Cricket Rumor Mill. Coinciding with the dissolving of their label (Loose Thread Recordings) and major life events for the band, Aloha was shelved. In 2020 the band reconnected with producer Justin Mayer to put the finishing touches on the record and issue its official release.

about

The Cricket Rumor Mill Chicago, Illinois

In 2007, on a long summer day, they came over for a BBQ. We met each others' new babies. I think a dog snatched a burger off someone's plate. We drank until dark and then went our separate ways.
