EDITORIAL REVIEWS
Now The Day Is Over has become a favorite amongst innocence mission fans since it's initial release in 2004. Jazz-tinged and dreamy, it's a timeless record of standards and traditional songs that singer Karen Peris sang to her children as lullabies. This consistent seller from one of America's longest running indie rock bands is now available on vinyl for the first time, and features new artwork (created by Peris) and a new version of the song "Edelweiss" that is available only on this LP. It features time worn classics from iconic movies; "Stay Awake" from Mary Poppins, "Over the Rainbow" from The Wizard of Oz, "Moon River" from Breakfast at Tiffany's, and "Edelweiss" from The Sound of Music. The record features one original song, "My Love Goes With You." Upon release All Music summarized the charm of the record, stating "it could have been merely a curiosity piece, a curious addition to a mysterious catalog by a singular group. Instead, it is nothing less than a wondrous little gem."
