The Carpenter Ants - Insect Ball

Produced (mostly) by Don Dixon; with guest appearances by NRBQ co-founder/guitarist Steve Ferguson and keyboardist Jon Carroll (Mary Chapin-Carpenter). As we found ourselves waiting ever so patiently for the release of 'Ants In Your Pants,' we decided that in the interim, we'd release some songs that, hopefully, will interest some folks. In addition to 'Rabbit,' 'Meat on the Bone' and 'Rise Up, Little People' (our emancipation song for little people) - none of which made the final cut for record - there's a couple of live tracks recorded at the Double Door in Charlotte (including a new original 'Talk Too Much') and a dance-crazy remix of 'Rise Up' by our good friend Dan LeRoy. - Michael Lipton.
