Live from the Living Room: Volume One is a free digital EP from American rock band, The Format. It was released in The Living Room, the fan club section of their website, on March 10, 2006. The inclusion of "Volume One" in the title implies that it was intended to be the first in a series of releases. The EP includes acoustic versions of four songs from their, then upcoming, album Dog Problems and a cover of XTC's "1,000 Umbrellas." The EP also included a bonus video of the Format performing "The Compromise" acoustically at The Knitting Factory in Los Angeles on January 22, 2006. This show was only open to members of The Living Room.
