Common Rotation, the fantabulous folk band, kindly created our fantastic theme song. Jordan Katz, Eric Kufs and Adam Busch (who has also received the Employee of the Month award) are the main players and I am so proud and grateful to have them as Employee of the Month's official band for all West Coast, East and South Asia live tapings. I thoroughly recommend you check out their music. They perform live and you can download their albums!
