Temporary Residence Ltd will be releasing Paul de Jong's If this April 28th, 2015. If you're a fan of The Books (read our previous coverage from 2009), you may know de Jong as the co-founder of the band.

"It’s time to come up for air."

If will feature de Jong's handful of friends and family as musical guests, and in typical The Books fashion, will fused eccentric folk-pop with art.
