Background

Production for The Magnificent Adventures Of Heartache began in 2006 and 2007 after Reeves's first EP with Mikal Blue, Hearts Are Magnets, and around the time that Reeves was working on material with Colbie Caillat for her first album, Coco. The album was again recorded with producer Mikal Blue[2] at his Revolver recording studio and Reeves self-released the album in 2007. He promoted the album through his myspace page and sold it at live shows and through online stores such as cdbaby.com.[3] The release gained Reeves distinctions such as "Top Folk Album of 2007" from iTunes and "No. 1 Unsigned Folk Artist" on myspace.[3]

The album helped Reeves sign a deal with Warner Bros. Records in 2008 that lead to the major label re-release of the album. This version of the album (which included four remixed tracks) was released in stores and online on September 9, 2008.[1]
