   About Last Fair Deal
Last Fair Deal redraws the map of American roots music with fluid energy and creativity. Their new CD, True Tales, serves up twelve original and three re-grooved, traditional tunes. LFD's live performances, with stellar vocals and unique acoustic synergy, will captivate any audience.

LFD's Latest Release, "True Tales" NOW AVAILABLE!
Over 2 years in the making, this brand new collection of original songs is by far the strongest Last Fair Deal release to date.

Late 2003 saw guitarist Paul Howard's son Todd joining the band along with original LFD members Tom and Phil, and they began to create a whole new batch of original material. The 15 songs on "True Tales" were recorded and mixed over the following 18 months and what resluted is a stunning set of tracks that will surprise and delight fans old and new.

Pick up the new CD "True Tales" on CD Baby...

Download Spaghetti Cake's Brand-New Release
"What About Pluto - EP" right here on iTunes!

Spaghetti Cake "What About Pluto - EP"

Features three brand-new studio tracks from Spaghetti Cake recorded in August 2007, plus the classic but never-before released hit "Farm Boy".

"What About Pluto" is an instant Spaghetti Cake classic. Inspired by the recent 'reclassification' of our beloved ninth planet Pluto, this song reflects on the tiny orb's signifigance in all of our lives; past, present, and future. A live concert favorite for Spaghetti Cake, mixed by the great Earl Cohen.

"Who's Your Best Friend" is a 'tween girl fist-pumping skirt-twirling pop anthem about the magical power of true friendship. Inspired by Glen's own music students at school, this catchy hook will have you dancing in your living rooms and singing along with every word. Mixed by Earl Cohen.

"Miles and Miles of Smiles" - This new bonus track rounds out the "Pluto" EP. Commissioned to be included on a national dental health compilation CD, Sue returns to take you on an unforgettable flight of fancy through sun-drenched sandy beaches on a bicycle to surfing a thunderous stormy sea on your bed!

A 4 song MySpace Preview EP of the upcoming Spaghetti Cake limited edition Live Album has been posted on my page. The release features 20 songs, including 7 songs not on any Spaghetti Cake release, completely live from the stereo 2 track recording with no overdubs or fussing. The exciting live performance on July 15, 2007 from the Guilford Green in Guilford, CT. features inspiring original music, as well as a few select covers given distinct Cake arrangements. These 4 songs are a previously released compositions from the pen of Glen and Sue Nelson and Todd Howard, that give you a teaser, without spoiling all the great new treats to come!
