Album One is the debut studio album by American steampunk band Steam Powered Giraffe, released on October 30, 2009.[1][2]
It is the only album to feature founding member Erin Burke; when she left in 2011, the band heavily modified the album for new releases, replacing her vocal parts and contributions as songwriter, and removing her from the cover art, due to the band wishing to present its most current image at the time. The original version was made available again six years later on March 22, 2017, with both versions now available for purchase.[3][4]
