We Are Little Barrie is the debut album from Little Barrie, released on 7 February 2005 in the United Kingdom, followed by a United States release on 28 June 2005. They recorded the album over 23 weeks at producer Edwyn Collins’ West Heath Studios. Among the gear used in the studio were a ’62 Gibson ES-330, a Traynor Studio Mate, a Gretsch Chet Atkins and a Fender ’69 Vibralux 2x10. The mics were mostly old Neumanns—although the odd [Shure] SM57 was used, as well.
