Local record label Hardly Art, home to area luminaries The Dutchess and the Duke, Talbot Tagora, and Moondoggies, among others, is offering a great and mostly local sampler for free download. Get it here. Press release and track list after the jump.

In addition to selections from all of our releases thus far there are a few unreleased highlights - an early demo of the Dutchess & the Duke's "Back to Me", a stripped down / acoustic version of the Pica Beats' "Poor Old Ra" and a live version of Arthur & Yu's "Magic Mtn" (taken from a show at Seattle's Triple Door at which the Moondoggies served as Arthur & Yu's backing band). This digital sampler is the only place to get these unreleased tracks. Also included is the early Moondoggies song "Keep Her On the Line", previously available only on their limited edition Record Store Day 2009 EP.
