Eight/Thirteen by Think Tree

This was Think Tree's first EP. It contains their song "Hire a Bird" (originally released as a 12" single) which was named one of the 101 best alternative songs of all time by Boston radio station WFNX. It gained a following in various regions of the U.S. due to college airplay and in Holland, Germany, Belgium and Switzerland as a result of heavy airplay on the Dutch radio station VPRO — this led to two tours of the region. The title is a reference to the Fibonacci number sequence where each number equals the previous two combined: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21...
