EinsteinBarbie - You Wanna Licky My Icecream?

Steven from EinsteinBarbie very kindly sent me a copy of a limited E.P. they have released while we all wait for the full album to be finished off.
REALLY looking forward to that…
Five fantastic tracks on the E.P. all in true EB stylee. You can check out the tracks over on the website.
While you are over at EinsteinBarbie world subscribe to their newsletter for a chance to get hold of one. (My lovely package even had a pink Barbie shoe in it, how cute is that!)
Thank you Steven, above-and-beyond looking after your fans I would say.
