Sharkbite Sessions is an EP released in 2005 by Ted Leo and the Pharmacists.[1] During their late 2004 tour promoting the Shake the Sheets album, the band stopped over at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, CA. There, the band—along with Ryan Massey of Communiqué—recorded full-band versions of two songs featured on 2003's Tell Balgeary, Balgury Is Dead EP and one that has become a staple of the Pharmacists' live sets.
