We are just constantly so proud of Gene Defcon.    Last year, when southwestern pizza chain Mr. Gatti’s announced a pizza jingle contest, “Gene The Eagle” joined forces with Charlie The Unicorn and Doggie Drummer to compose a series of submissions.  Although Mr. Gatti’s ultimately decided to go in a different direction, the guys kept rhyming and stepwritin the next cyphers until they had a whole album’s worth.

Purchase the band’s debut “Let’s Eat Pizza” from our pals at www.businessdealrecords.com and enjoy this clip to grease your tastebuds:
