(Besides Banhart's musical contributions to Vetiver's first two albums, Cabic co-wrote Banhart's breakout song "At the Hop," from 2004's Rejoicing in the Hands; on the same album, Banhart paid tribute to his friend's band in the song "When the Sun Shone on Vetiver.")

VINYL FORMAT. This limited-edition 7-inch single, "Hey Doll Baby" b/w "Miles Apart" possesses the rich Vetiver treatment that makes the special songs the band's own. "Hey Doll Baby" is already an established concert favorite, beloved by Vetiver's burgeoning fan base. The B-side of the 7-inch, "Miles Apart," by AR Kane (the same duo who wrote "Pump Up the Volume"), provides a strong taste of Cabic's love of '80s UK alternative pop.
