The band toured with friends [[Chris Brown (Canadian musician)|Chris Brown]] and [[Greg Kurstin]] filling in on keyboards until Hearn recovered enough to rejoin them on tour. The singles "[[It's All Been Done]]" (the opening theme of the animated television series ''[[Baby Blues (American TV series)|Baby Blues]]'') and "[[Call and Answer]]" (which appeared in the film ''[[EdTV]]'') were modest hits.
