Dude records new versions of the Mister Softee jingle; Music inspired by the Kustard King

We all know the tune. Ever since we were kids it has signaled the arrival of summer to the beautiful boroughs.

Park Slope (where else?) resident Michael Hearst, a singer and instrumentalist with the indie rock band One Ring Zero, wants to muscle in on the Mister Softee theme with a newly released album of alternative tunes called “Songs for Ice Cream Trucks.”

I guess we should reference The NY Times now.
