Please Come Home


Please Come Home is the first studio album by Dustin Kensrue, released in 2007.

Songs

The album contains eight songs, which Kensrue has emphasized was a reflection of the albums/EPs he used to buy as a kid.

Recording

The album was recorded in the studio of Thrice lead guitarist Teppei Teranishi, who also played piano and organ on the album. Electric guitars and drums were recorded by long-time friend and Thrice guitar technician, Chris Jones.

Release

The album was planned for release in October 2006, but was delayed to 2007 due to issues recording and acquiring a label to distribute it.
On October 10, 2006, it was announced that Kensrue had signed with Equal Vision Records, and that the label would release his debut solo album. On November 7, "I Knew You Before" was made available for streaming via Kensrue's Myspace account. Please Come Home was released on January 23, 2007 through Equal Vision.
