I’ve finished a CD of original kid’s music for my nephews, nieces, son and daughter. What a project! Lots of fun with plenty of excuses to try fun voices and sounds. I got to use a vocoder, a kalimba, kazoo, slide whistle, and more. I personalized a lot of the songs to include the kid’s names. Here are some excerpts from “Get Up”, “Throatasaurus”, “Hi, Jumpers”, “Robot Versus Alien”, “Sunbeam”, and “The Monkey Song”.

We have finally released the CD of the musical “Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch”! Woo-hoo! The play is about some cowboys who sing to their cattle to keep them from stampeding, but aren’t very good at it. At some point, some sweet-singing cowgirls enter the picture as well as a no-good-do-er looking to steal the ranch. It has explosions, cows, and everything else necessary for a good time. CD’s are $12 and help Hyland Christian School. If you would like a CD, email me or leave a comment and I’ll get a hold of you. We can ship CDs for an additonal $2.

Here’s a sampler track with excerpts from some of the songs:

For those of you that don’t mind something both different and cheesy, here is a recent talent show performance by yours truly. By the way, nothing was pre-recorded… it was all done on the spot. (If you want to see it directly on YouTube or even rate it, it’s here). Let me apologize in advance for the poor sound quality (P.A. then video tape, ick!)
