How do you like your pancakes?\u00a0 Do you make them from scratch or do you buy them in a packet? Here at EP Towers we’ve been known to both make them and buy them – and we’ve even made tortillas for Pancake Day in the past, which are a sort of Mexican dough style of pancake, rolled flat and fried in a pan, rather than cooked from batter.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

<\/ins><\/p>\n

John Dredge And The Plinths seem to like making their pancakes from batter, if the video for their latest single, ‘Pancake Day’, appropriately released today, is anything to go by.<\/p>\n

With their customary humour and early 60s style vocals (if you told me that this was a newly discovered demo by The Kinks I’d not blink an eyelid), John is seen wielding a frying pan in an otherwise empty room, whilst making semaphore like movements, interspersed with a variety of rubber-faced expressions.<\/p>\n

I personally guarantee that the Pancake Dance will burn off any and all additional calories incurred from eating pancakes,’ says alternative nutritionist Dredge. ‘Unless you eat loads,’ he adds.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The song itself is upbeat and jolly, espousing the joys of Pancake Day and all its wonder for both young and old. It’s a great song and we think that John Dredge and the Plinths have discovered a niche into a hitherto under-exploited holiday. Forget New Year’s Day, Valentines Day or Christmas – Pancake Day is the one we should all be focusing on, with sugar, lemon juice, flour-power, and that all round golden-brown delciousness. Toss a few while you’re having a listen.<\/p>\n

‘Pancake Day’, by John Dredge And The Plinths, is out today, 5 March, Pancake Day. You can stream and download the single on Bandcamp<\/a>, iTunes<\/a>, Amazon<\/a>, Spotify<\/a>, Deezer<\/a>, Google Play Store<\/a>, and SoundCloud<\/a>.<\/p>\n
