Welcome to another episode of ’60 Minutes or less’, the new-ish podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast. For episode 12, we turn to music hot-spot Lancaster for our egg-cellent guest, Holly Ross of The Lovely Eggs! Forgive me the pun, as you’ll soon hear, Holly is not fond of them!


Along with husband David Blackwell, Ross makes up the other half of The Lovely Eggs - a two-headed rock and roll monster that’s been ripping it for fifteen plus years, with a handful of records under their collective belts and collaborations over the years with Pigsx7 and living leg-end Iggy Pop.  


Their new album ‘Eggsistentialism’ is out now via their very own Egg Records - a stormer to add to their varied collection, with a number of its singles even bothering the Official UK Charts top 10 in vinyl sales!  


A flying visit for this episode as they were deep into the final promotional push, the interview schedule coincided with their sending of a mammoth amount of records out to their loyal fanbase of egg-heads by hand. We were happy to catch Holly for half an hour over Zoom the week they released the album, to talk about Ivor Cutler, egg-based puns, DIY, soul-searching and their efforts to save The Lancaster Music Co-op.
