Lunch Money If I had to have a philosophy, this would be it. This song has been in my head today (I tend to reference this SNL moment a lot). Looking up the old clip, it's a little sad with Chris Farley and Phil Hartman but still fun (and inspiring?).

Lunch Money Sending big grins to Kathy O'Connell of WXPN's Kids Corner in Philadelphia for including us in the Best of 2009 list she made for NPR! Cheers to that!

This year has seen a lot of "quirky" kids' music, wherein the sweet-voiced folkies of the past were replaced by growling rocker moms and clear, intimate harmonies. The quality was high this year, with albums rooted in reggae, electronica, folk and rock aimed at young ears.

Lunch Money We are happy to announce that Brandon Reese will be back to illustrate our upcoming CD. Early chats with Brandon are already indicating donuts, happy/sad feelings of friendship and more donuts. Can't wait to see what it will all look like!

Lunch Money Hey everybody! Lunch Money was feeling the love this weekend when Dizzy was voted the #2 children's CD of the year by the judges of the annual Fids and Kamily Awards. The #1 spot went to They Might Be Giants and the #3 spot went to Recess Monkey, a terrifically fun band from Seattle. We're excited and encouraged as we ...are putting the finishing touches on next year's album!

So, you're thinking, lots of great music there, but where, oh where, can I buy it?Well, our friend Bryan (also a judge) at The Pokey Pup is running a special on all of 'em (including the honorable mentions)!Support a great independent retailer who really cares about kids' music. Head on over there.

Too sweet.

Lunch Money There has been a whirring sound in my head for months - reminiscent of when I used to take my poor Chevette on the interstate. And it finally shifted gears! Hurray!

John Heiligenthal looking forward to your new CD! - do you guys need a case of Red Bull or Mountain Dew to finish this album?

Sylver when will you have snowglobe on an album? I LOVE it, but can only listen here. :(

Lunch Money Would you believe a song about a donut shop could be a little sad? But in a very pretty way.
