Last month I shared updates about Hank & Cupcakes’ upcoming second album, “Cash for Gold,” and noted the first single, “Countdown,” was on the way. Friday, that single was released on iTunes and other digital outlets.

While a new music video hasn’t been produced just yet, they did perform the song on The Jimmy Lloyd Songwriter Showcase, which marks their second appearance on that program. The performance is above.
EDIT: The duo reached out to me to let me know the single was released, and offered an additional fun fact: Vocals were tracked at the Metropolitan Avenue stop of the G subway line in Brooklyn. They’ve expressed that the city has offered inspiration to them in previous interviews, so it seems appropriate to take advantage of the unique environments a city like New York can offer to add to the music!
