News: Glen Phillips new EP available now

Glen Phillips has completed a new EP that can be checked out here. Formerly the frontman of one of my all-time favorite bands, Toad the Wet Sprocket, the prolific Glen has written an enviable catalogue of music that is both artistic and melodic.

Glen's MySpace page.

And if that isn't exciting enough, he's participating in a new all-star band that should have a CD out later this year:

"Tentatively known as the Scrolls, the octet is comprised of keyboardist Benmont Tench from Tom Petty's Heartbreakers, drummer Pete Thomas and bassist Davey Faragher from Elvis Costello's Imposters, Nickel Creek's Sara and Sean Watkins, Toad the Wet Sprocket frontman Glen Phillips, fiddler Luke Bula from the Blue Merle Band and multi-instrumentalist Greg Leisz."
