Music for Kids: Ladybug One

dreamy...acoustic...sweet...original...classic...

It is hard to put Ladybug One by Harmonica Pocket in a category or to use just one word to describe it. Eclectic might be a good word if I had to chose just one. Ever hear "Oh Susannah" with a sitar? Well, you will if you buy this album.
I do have to give them a lot of love because the album was recorded using solar power (!) and it was also recorded right here in the Seattle area.
Unfortunately, we (the kids, The Husband, and I) weren't that excited about the album as a whole- there were definite highlights. Little Miss loves the song "Ladybug 123" and the tinkling, sparkling version of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" but The Husband and I were ready to climb out the car windows with the dark, brooding and repetitious "I Love the ABCs". I would still encourage you to try them out, if not for anything else, to support a family-friendly band who supports the environment.

I think they would be MUCH better live which is why I am happy to post their touring schedule and upcoming shows for the Seattle Area:
