Some form of the Album will be for sale at the show along with amazing limited-edition posters (depicted above), all screen printed with a metallic gold cookies by Heidi Alexander herself. Don’t worry, there will be edible cookies too.

Here is some of what peeps are saying about this "long-awaited, soul-piercing new long-player" so far:

“The new record finds former Fresh & Onlys Heidi & Grace at the height of their powers, a perfect marriage of the group’s genre-spanning debut and their darker, haunting/heartbreaking Duck Duck Goose EP.” – Gorilla vs. Bear

“The trio’s sublime mix of of soul, folk, Americana and indie-rock, underpinned by their characteristic haunting lo-fi sound, is invariably bewitching and beautiful, managing to tick all of the what’s-hot-in-music-now boxes, while still sounding completely individual.” – Wears The Trousers

“Grace Cooper and Heidi Alexander make the kind of goodnatured but haunting garage rock that sounds familiar because it’s always been there in your head when you’re riding your bike around, waiting to be imagined, and with voices that sound like Kate Bush sometimes and Natalie Merchant other times, they’re really irresistible.” – Pretty Much Amazing

“Their voices are sung in such a way that it sounds as if a girl group would have members containing angels that harp to the heavens above.” – Twenty Seven Views

“like the soundtrack to a Halloween hoedown. The country swing mixes with haunting three-girl harmonies to paint a scene of party-goers in convincing zombie costumes square-dancing the night away. The harmonies swirl around with just enough twang while guitars crunch along in down-home tones; reminding listeners to not be distracted by the strangely haunting mood, and to remember that the Sandwitches want only to bring listeners a small slice of true-gritty Americana.” – Visitation Rites

“Something about the Sandwitches just always puts me in a cool mood. If you like cool moods, you should listen to the Sandwitches. Fun and smart tunes, sometimes they’re rock and roll or sometimes they’re like a pal sitting on your couch.” – Fuck Yeah Go Team

…and of course:

“The ten songs on Mrs. Jones’ Cookies stand as a doorway leading to the House of God. The music of these three cascade in and out like active and passive expressions of the Divine Energy. Sometimes high, sometimes low, Sulfur and Salt, Good and Bad, Light and Darkness, that, when placed in the proper chamber of initiation graft into one androgynous creature that blazes forth eternal verities revealing temporal truths.” – Sonny Smith

More on Mrs. Jones’ Cookies by Sonny Smith:

“Like the sapphire Schethiya, The Sandwitches, the crown jewels of the Archangel Lucifer, fell from Heaven. Is there any question the distinctive singing of Grace Cooper & Heidi Alexander represent mercy & severity? Roxanne Brodeurs’ beats the brazen pillars of the Flesh? Their latest effort is a sanctuary of spiritual illumination crossed with earthly splendor, a hushed witness to the perfect virtue of equilibrium, a flaming sword for the listener to thrust into the coronet of their adversary.

The ten songs on Mrs. Jones’ Cookies stand as a doorway leading to the House of God. The music of these three cascade in and out like active and passive expressions of the Divine Energy. Sometimes high, sometimes low, Sulfur and Salt, Good and Bad, Light and Darkness, that, when placed in the proper chamber of initiation graft into one androgynous creature that blazes forth eternal verities revealing temporal truths.”

– Sonny Smith
