The 2¢ Show

The 2¢ Show is the second studio album by steampunk folk rock band Steam Powered Giraffe, released on May 23, 2012. The album picks up the story where their first album, Album One, left off, where the robots are trying to become more human. "Honeybee" was the hit single from the album.

It is the last album with singer and bassist The Jon, and also the first album with drummer and backing vocalist Sam Luke (who would later replace The Jon) and guitarist Michael Philip Reed.
