KINDIEBEAT HELPFUL LINKS!!
I mentioned a few items during this month’s KindieBeat segment and I will now link to those things!
MonkeyFish Toys is now selling a handpicked (by me!) selection of kindie CDs in their fine indie toy store in Exton, PA. The music is playing through Apple TV on a flat screen with the beautiful artwork on display behind the albums themselves. If you know a great indie toy seller in your town that might like to start selling the best and brightest of the Golden Age of Family Music, let me know at jeff@owtk.com!
Pre-orders of Justin Roberts’ Recess get a limited edition pop-up robot, access to a secret website, and a special coloring book. You also get a gorgeous looking album and the eventual winner of the 2014 Grammy Award for Best Children’s Album. You heard it here first. Sign up for JR’s email list to get the pre-order scoop very soon!
Lucky Diaz and the Family Jam Band are pitching Coke! Well, sort of. The group wrote a sweet song called “Falling” for the brilliant new Coke ad. Watch it below.
