HoboPod-Cast #04 - The Last One To Understand | An early sketch in the truest sense of the word, this comes straight out of our rehearsals for the 'No.5' album recording, and is by far the newest song we will be playing. That's Gabriel Minnikin from The Guthries and The Minnikins on the mandolin (doing a somewhat better job than Mat on the tenor guitar!) - it's coming up nicely and we're looking forward to having it ready for the show. Thanks for listening. www.kirstymcgee.com P.S. We will post the second half of that Irish radio interview soon - we just keep getting nice moments from our rehearsals in the way... | 30 9 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

HoboPod-Cast #03 - Stonefruit | We laid down this sketch for a new song we were working on when we were in Ireland this summer. It's quite a bit longer than the version we're playing now, and that will end up being performed as part of our live album recording next month, but we like the energy it has even in these early stages.
