(from his myspace page): J.J. Ipsen is a pretty simple guy. He uses what’s around him to create achingly catchy folk-torch pop diamonds-in-the-rough. “J.J. Ipsen’s Laundry” contains eight of these diamonds, inspired by books, film, love, friends and Labatt 50. Written in greenhouses, music shops, bedrooms and car seats, they’re your favourite shirt, your beaten-up jeans and your reliable sweater. “J.J. Ipsen’s Laundry” was made possible with the cooperation of many of Ipsen’s pals.
