The Summer of High Hopes is the tenth album by Emm Gryner, released in 2006 on Dead Daisy Records.[1]

In an interview with Q Magazine, Bono cited Gryner's "Almighty Love" as one of the songs he most wished he had written himself.[2]

Copies preordered through Gryner's website were shipped with a bonus disc, PVT, which featured rerecorded versions of songs from her 1998 album Public. This disc was later offered as a separate purchase.
