Hi everyone, I hope you enjoyed the Jellyheads track as much as I enjoyed the rest of the podcast. Top stuff all round!
Our album is indeed on sale now: on CD at thejellyheads.com and on CD and download at CD Baby. We also have a Myspace page, if you’d like to be our “friend” or drop us a line. Cheers!

This is such a great bunch of songs! So contrasty!
Halfway through my second listening, I think I’ve decided that Teleprompt is my new jam.

Devon Sproule, you shine in the dark places of my heart, right there with Lucinda Williams and Kathleen Edwards.

I DID enjoy that Jellyheads song. I think I was expecting something different and what came out of my speakers was so much more than my expectations!
