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!
Hey guys, I'll be playing a full-band CD release show at the Basement in Northampton on Sept 15th if you'd like to come. It'd be great seeing you again! take care, -adam
Thanks Spaghetti Cake! Yes indeed, another trip around the sun. Celebrated with a studio session with Spaghetti Cake... when will we hear the two new tracks up on myspace? Cheers !
