Enjoying the success of their 2006 recording, "Hormonal Imbalance" ...A Mood Swinging Musical Revue, Babe members Sally Fingerett, Debi Smith, Nancy Moran and Deirdre Flint went into the recording studio to record their eighth CD. Armed with a slew of new songs -- along with M & M’s, Twizzlers, Chick-fil-A, and Chardonnay -- they let loose their whimsical, hip and sophisticated girl group harmonies, creating a new project sure to entertain their Babe and “Man-Babe” fans alike.
Produced with conviction (sort of!) by Hem and Haw Productions, the girls take off with the welcoming anthem, "Babesland," after which, each Babe takes a turn in the spotlight, offering up her take on life in "the Nation." From Nancy's sigh of relief in "Elastic Waistbands," Sally's demand for "Chocolate," Debi's salute to purses in "Arm Candy," to Deirdre's emotional need for "New Shoes" (and her inner guy’s need for "New Tools"), these award-winning songwriters know of what they sing! With musical shout-outs to hardworking gal pals doing the best they can in "American Women," "Long Lonesome Road" and "The Happy Song," the Babes also celebrate the soft, "The Introvert Song," the demure, "(No Such Things As) Girls Like That," that mother/daughter connection, "These Are The Things," and the hysterical "Viva La Diva."
Take a Babes’ show home with you as they showcase their wildly funning, entertaining originality, along with their synergistic and magical girlfriend vocal chemistry. Welcome to Diva Nation, where all songs are sung with pride, attitude and terrific accessories!

SALLY-BABE GETS READY TO BENEFIT MS SOCIETY!
Sally-Babe is thrilled to participate in a wonderful fund raising CD compilation to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. "In My Room" produced by DC Anderson (currently starring as Andre with the National Touring company of "Phantom"), is a collection of contemporary composers performing "cover songs" that they might sing to themselves, when alone. Sally chose "People Get Ready" by Curtis Mayfield. Check out this CD and the list of performers at http://www.inmyroomontheweb.com/inmyroom_howtobuy.html
DEBI-BABE DRUMS HER WAY TO PBS!
Is that Debi's Bodhran-playing (Irish drum) you hear on Ken Burn's new PBS series, "The National Parks"? Yes! The cut, which features Debi with Al Petteway on guitar, is one of the main theme songs in the series, and is called, "Sligo Creek." The recording, just like our parks, is majestic!

DR. DEMENTO INCLUDES THE BABES® ON HIS ANNUAL SAMPLER!
Well, as it happens, the very wonderfully sick and twisted Dr. Demento, has invited the Babes'® very own Deirdre Flint to lend "Taxidermal Therapy" to his next "Dr. Demento Basement Tapes No. 15." This annual sampler will be available to members of his Demented Society, (join now at www.drdemento.com) and we're tickled that he found the Babe's newest CD "Hormonal Imbalance...A Mood Swinging Musical Revue" and asked if he might include Deirdre's song for his fans.
The Dr. Demento Show is radio's weekly two-hour festival of "mad music and crazy comedy" heard on stations coast to coast. It is a free-wheeling, unpredictable mix of music and comedy. Along with legends like Spike Jones, Tom Lehrer, Stan Freberg, Monty Python, and Frank Zappa, the Doctor plays new funny songs sent in professional singers and comedians. And now...The Four Bitchin' Babes®!

THE WASHINGTON POST
"Never more entertaining....sharing trademark harmonies that can turn even the most ridiculous refrain into something sublime!"
6 Words Reviewer: Sue in NH
Only need 6 words of recommendation....buy it, buy it, buy it! (I guess that would be 6 words and 3 punctuation marks). Seriously, this is one of the best commedy albums I've heard in a very long time. Mixed in are some heart-felt, more serious looking-at-life numbers, making this a very well rounded and superior compilation from The Babes®.
Another Winner from the Babes®
Reviewer: 4thof4
Great selection of songs, beautiful harmonies, witty lyrics, touching lyrics, thoughtful lyrics, hilarious lyrics...and did I mention the beautiful harmonies? There's nothing not to LOVE about Hormonal Imbalance.
A must have for any girls night get together! Reviewer: Donna
This is a definite MUST HAVE for any 'girls night get together!' True to life songs both hilarious and heart felt!
Produced with conviction by Hem and Haw Productions, this CD opens with a full choral version of “Oh No” the perfect babe song written by founding member Christine Lavin. The New Hormonal Imbalance Musical Revue welcomes two new cast members; Philadelphia’s comic goddess, Deirdre Flint, showcasing her wry wit and charm with “Cheerleader,” “Boob Fairy,” along with the ever so smooth “Taxidermal Therapy” and Nashville’s studio singing, magazine editing, songwriter, Nancy Moran, who lets loose and pumps it up on “Honestly,” while soulfully wishing us all “Unconditional Love.” She also does a straight up killer version of the Camille West/Scott Wodicka hit “Viagra in the Waters.”
Longtime Babes®, Sally Fingerett and Debi Smith are back with those “Babe Tunes” they’re most known for. Sally accepts the inevitable and heats things up with “Hot Flash,” calms down while pleading for “One Easy Day” and then finds her balance as she honors ancestors and family with her haunting “Faces on My Wall.” Debi Smith once again takes that 5 octave range voice of hers out for a stroll with “Walk the Walk,” while paying tribute to her walking partner (her mom) with “Just Ask Your Doctor,” a hilarious diatribe of pharmaceutical warnings that Debi co-wrote with her mother Vivian Smith. This new project wouldn’t be complete without Debi’s Babe hit “Pass it On” an ode to her son featuring her magnificent Bodhran (Irish drum).
