This week brings a rather mellow mood to the duo as they discuss their fourth track, titled “Simone”, off of their recent album “Pulse of the Earth“. In other podcast news, Hungry Lucy are also featured on “The Smiths’ Occasional Podcast“! If “Tea with Hungry Lucy” just isn’t enough, go get another fix with the Smiths! You may even hear the REAL story behind Hungry Lucy.

CB chats about the bad, bad thing that happened to her last week, and the fact that recovery is still an ongoing process. Much thanks to her supportive friends and family for their encouraging words and advice.

Until next week, have some herbal tea!

Oh, dear. The duo hit the ground running, and giggling, as they discuss another song from the new album, “Pulse of the Earth.” The third featured song, “The Standing ones”, is revisited through weird references, odd voices and is even described as the poor, lastly chosen flavor-ice in the freezer. The duo explain how difficult the transformation was to get the song up-to-date to meet their ever-demanding approval. CB cheers at the second draft of the second verse and Warren nods to Star Wars via trumpets and big drums. A very light-hearted, playful episode with laughter-a-plenty. Come one, come all!

Until next week, stay standing.

Holy stolen antlers, Batman! It’s time for another episode of Tea with Hungry Lucy! What could they possibly have to say this week? Well, you can bet that they’re going to try and sway you to buy their fantastically beautiful new album, “Pulse of the Earth“, for only $15 short dollars! And, why not? It’s “Airy-Fairy meets Dark and Scary”. Who wouldn’t want that?

CB reads the story behind this week’s song, “Bumble”, which she wrote down in the cabin shortly after hearing Warren’s musical workings. Warren fills us all in on his inspirational figure, David Lynch, and how DL set the “tone” for the first part of the song’s work. All in all, a fascinating turn of events for one of the duo’s favorite tracks off the new album. Rabbit heads and all, it’s just a bunch of fun.

Warren goes on to speak highly of a Brian Eno documentary film, “Arena: Another Green World“, and CB spills forth goodness about a film called “Humble Pie“. It’s a good-for-you episode, full of all sorts of yum-yums, vitamins and cheese. Don’t forget the cheese!

Until next week, try your best not to run over any animals. It hurts!

Posted: February 11, 2010 in HL Blog

You can stream the latest Hungry Lucy album, “Pulse of the Earth” using the player below.

Then go get it.

This week brings the blathering duo to you, mudslides in hand, in a most excited fashion. Not only does CB talk, and talk…and TALK about the photography in the cd artwork, but Warren tells all on how to get the album, “Pulse of the Earth”, RIGHT NOW!!

The featured new track of the week, the first of ten, is “Balloon Girl”. Named in part for the memory of a dearly departed fan, (known as “The Carnival” on the HL Shoutout message board). This track exudes a rich, colorful, even playful, backdrop of darkly bright happiness. You can almost see the Not-So-Merry-Go-Round spinning, painted animals-a-plenty, with the Balloon Girl and all of her devoted companions at her side. She is never alone, nor will she ever be. The Balloon Girl is always with us. Always.

Until next week, when Hungry Lucy will bring you another story behind the song, enjoy the new album. Stay happy. Stay focused. Stay brave!
