Southern kindie rockers The Baby Grands have decided to give away their 2010 album The Baby Grands II (I'll let you figure out where it fits in their discography) for the price of an e-mail address. It's worth the price, but if you're not convinced by my pithy comment, I encourage you to stream the album at their website.
There's nothing complex about this new video from The Baby Grands. It's just a catchy tune ("Dinosaur") with some simple (though not cheesy) visuals. As I've said before more than once, sometimes that's all you need.
I optimistically titled my first attempt at a generic roundup of Volume 1, but, hey, here's Volume 2! All the news too small for its own post, super-sized for you.
-- As previously noted, Tor Hyams was developing a new podcast and the first episode of Kindiecast premiered last weekend. Thirty minutes, 8 songs -- stream or download it here. (And today the website notes that Recess Monkey has another batch of songs ready to go, but those guys write songs in their sleep, I think.) Anyways, iTunes podcasting will be happening shortly...
-- Speaking of Hyams, Frances England'sMind of My Own (produced by Hyams) is released Nov. 9th and she's got a lot of new stuff associated with the release. This weekend she's got a new show on Sirius-XM's Kids Place Live (check there for details), she's selling artwork, and, while I have a vague memory that Frances told me about these "Creative Family Challenges" contests, the first one is now here and embedded below:
-- Speaking of upcoming albums, The Baby Grands release their new album The Baby Grands II on Nov. 16, and today only they're running a deal on Plum District's Atlanta site to get that and their debut album for just $9 plus shipping... I like the creative thinking on getting their music out in front of a wide audience...
-- To complete the upcoming album trifecta, The Boogers' second album Let's Go! comes out Nov. 23rd and they're letting you have one of the energetic album's best tracks, "Otto's Orange Day," for the price of an e-mail address. Go here to grab it.
Turns out their teaser video was slightly apropos. The Baby Grands, whose new album The Baby Grands II comes out Nov. 16th (even your preschooler could probably guess how many albums they've released, have produced their first video for the album. It's for the song "Robot" and features a boogie-ing robot. No surprise they prefer Android operating systems...
