See, Mom? External Validation!

Welcome to any readers finding me from this morning's article on kids music in the Austin American-Statesman. For a YAKMA (Yet Another Kids Music Article), it's pretty good. I say that not because it quotes me (pshaw, who cares?) or Dan Zanes (I think it's in the kids' music journalist bylaws that one interview him on the subject), but because it also quotes more under-the-radar artists such as Austin's Biscuit Brothers and Barry Louis Polisar.
OK, maybe the mention of the Fids and Kamily poll had a little something to do with it. And the fact that the the Statesman is my hometown paper away from my hometown paper was kinda nice. My mom -- who still lives in Austin -- got a kick out of it, too.
Anyway, look around the place for lots more great kids music, regardless of whether or not you know my mom.

I was going to mention the fact that my wife is friends from growing up with Ginger Hendrix, but a quick search on your site shows you already know about her album, so I will keep the blurbing to a minimum.
Anyway, just saying HI, and I thought I should let you know that to this day no matter how sure I am about something, I don't bet my life on it, but I do say "I bet Stefan Shepherd's life on it!" Doesn't seem to have hurt you thus far. :)
I didn't know Dan Zanes was coming to town, but maybe I'll roust at least the boy to go see him - for some reason his version of "Wabash Cannonball" is one of his favorites.
