Clementown: home
One day Kate and Chris picked up one of their favorite books - Polkabats and Octopus Slacks, and decided to set it to music.

"Clementown has taken my poems into another realm. Each tune is a unique joy, spinning out a sonic story in every flavor imaginable– from rock to folk to funk to klezmer, and everything in between. A masterpiece!" - Calef Brown www.calefbrown.com
"A sprawling, glorious and beautiful mess of an album." - Jeff Bogel www.outwiththekids.com
"What's most impressive about the set of songs is how much attention is paid to painting a picture with the songs. Recommended." - Stefan Shepherd www.zooglobble.com
