about

Dive into a hip, delicious, nutritious pool party with the debut single from Veg Plot Season 3.

"One of my favourite ways to write songs for The Vegetable Plot is to think about the personality of a particular vegetable and imagine them as a character inside a musical world.

Now what kind of personality does a cucumber have? Well, for one, they’re cool. Two, they like dips. Three, the other veggies probably wouldn’t call them by their full name, they’d just call them “Q”. It’s not a huge leap from there to a latin-jazz-infused summer anthem all about an ultra cool cucumber who has invited all the other veggies to his awesome summer pool party so he can play his jazz flute for them.

I’m thrilled with how this track has come together. We had so much fun making it, and I’m delighted that it’s the opening single from our upcoming third album."
- Veg Plot creator Luke Escombe (aka Aspara Gus)
