Keller Williams Kids album - you can win it!

What better way to start the new year than with a fun kids CD that will make you giggle.

Keller Williams released an album for kids in October 2010 (that seems so long ago now but it was just a few months ago!) that is simply adorably fun, funny and toe-tappin’ sweetness.

 

Keller, who has been putting out recordings in various incarnations since the mid-nineties, is an artist from Virginia whose music is a combination of many musical styles, including bluegrass, folk and funk.   These are definitely sounds one can hear in his first album for kids.

My three think this collection of sweet tunes is fantastic.  We particularly love the goofiness of tracks like Hula Hoop To Da Loop (which gets you shakin’) or Soakie Von Soakerman (I think this one’s my personal fave).  I think if the kids had to choose their favourite track, though, it would be Mama Tooted.  Yes, folks, a song about “mama”, who apparently isn’t ever supposed to release bodily noises of any kind, and when she does, it’s the most hilarious thing ever. 

My kids die laughing every single time this track comes on. In fact, I even catch them singing it in their rooms and snickering under their breath.

Keller’s site (the kids section) is fantastic.  You can head over there to explore and sample some of the tunes from this album, but in the meantime, here’s a little sample of Keller in a more intimate venue: at home singing (a Replacements tune, no less!) with his son Cabell.  So sweet...
