While in London last week, Sunset Rubdown did in fact record a song for the Black Cab Sessions. Spencer, Camilla, and Jordan performed a brand new song called “You Go On Ahead”. Spencer states this song is similar in theme and lyric to “Trumpet, Trumpet, Toot! Toot!” which is off their latest record ‘Random Spirit Lover’. Check out the session at: www.blackcabsessions.com. Thanks to Chris Pattinson for giving us the heads up!
