Smitten-tracks
Post 3 of 5 in what we here at the HHBTM HQ are calling SMITTENS WEEK. If you didn't already know the Smittens are about to go back over to the UK to rule over the Indietracks festival. (well co-rule along with Eux Autres & the Lovely Eggs...go HHBTM Family) Here's a little sample of what you might have missed last year. Eventhough they already played Colin & Dana brought it to the fans on the train platform between bands and even roped Max in on an acoustic version of "Gumdrops".

Just got word from Dana Smitten today that the HHBTM shop will have copies of both A Little Revolution and Gentlefication Now back in stock on CD by next week. Here's another new video, this one is for "Magpies & Eccles Cakes".
