This is another track recently finished from our 2009 RPM Challenge effort to create an album in a single month. The album, to be released later in the year, is called "When I Was Your Age" and features songs that take a look back at when we were kids.

This song asks St. Gratus (who really doesn't have much to do with beer - just vineyards) to watch over the fridge.

We have new Beatnik Turtle songs in the pipeline, but in order to get everything ready for the book's release we decided to present encores of some of the best of last year's songs. Last year, we recently created this theme for Mur Lafferty's fantastic audio novel podcast, Playing For Keeps. You can hear it at the Playing For Keeps website! Playing For Keeps is now a printed book from Swarm Press! It releases this week and is available at Amazon!

Recorded as part of our RPM Challenge 2008 album, Sham Rock, this is another traditional Irish song done in the Beatnik Turtle style.

Last year, we produced our album All In A Day's Work for RPM Challenge 2007. This year, we are basing our album on the concept behind the Beatnik Turtle songs Beer Beer Beer, All For Me Grog, and Whiskey Yer The Devil. That is, we are taking traditional Irish songs and re-arranging them Beatnik Turtle style. This week, we present the first finished cut from the new album. Watch for more in the month of March!
