In Their Words: “‘Ain’t This the Strangest Town’ is one of those songs that came pretty quick after a late night out in New York City. It’s sort of a love song to all the incredible strangers we meet not only there, but in all of our towns, big and small. The germ of the Fantastic Cat idea had just started and it felt like a song that played to the strengths of the band and everyoneâs abilities to swap instruments and contribute on so many levels together. We only did a couple takes and what you hear is pretty much everyone picking up the closest instrument and figuring it out in real time. It was a great bonding day for the band in the studio.” — Don DiLego, Fantastic Cat
