Ships Leaving is a split record by Greg O'Brien(At last an Atlas) and Paul O'Reilly. The album is released on Dublin based independent label Slow Loris. It is an album of two halves.

The first half of the record is by At last an atlas. At last an atlas is the music of Greg O'Brien, who is also one half of Dublin band "The Hollows". He uses organs, live electronics, samplers, nylon string guitar, vocals, noises and field recordings to
create warm, dreamy sounding electronic songs.

The second half of the record is by Paul O'Reilly. Paul O'Reilly released his first album 'First Thing in the Morning' in Ireland on Volta Sounds in September 2001 and in the UK/Europe on LooseMusic in Apr 2002 to much critical acclaim.

At the end of 2002 O'Reilly released a limited run of a handmade EPs. In 2006 he released a split 7 inch single with now defunct Dublin band (retards). Paul has continued writing and recording over the years, it is at this point, however, that O'Reilly is most satisfied with music he is producing. Ships Leaving marks a full return to music, for O'Reilly, which has been eagerly anticipated since
2001's debut album.

The album comes in beautifully designed packaging by Stumptown printers, with illustration by Greg O?Brien. Stumptown Printers is a worker owned cooperative print shop based in Portland, Oregon.

At Last An Atlas & Paul O'Reilly will play a number of launch shows for ships leaving through out Ireland.
