Pencil Sharks Album Available As Free Download

Paulo Shark, the man behind The Pencil Sharks, has been a busy man since I interviewed him last year. He has continued with his strategy of appealing to Emily Eavis to secure a slot at Glastonbury 2013 by recording a song a week, and has now made 11 outstanding tracks available as a free download from his facebook.

So come on Emily, book this man now, and mail me a backstage pass - he owes me a beer or two for all this publicity I have given him.
