What band in their right mind would make a video for the one non-musical album track on their newest album? Recess Monkey, of course! Depending on their mood, this is my girl’s favorite “song” on “The Final Funktier”. The Bear can often be heard saying “You don’t have to make […]
“Take it Outside”, The Okee Dokee Brothers sophomore family album, isn’t due until August 3rd, but you can score one of the new tunes right now. “The Naked Truth” is a fun story song about a dude who prefers to wear nothing but a smile. It’s not my favorite of […]

A phony State of the Union address, a staged moon landing, dumpster diving, and sparkly Michael Jackson gloves? Recess Monkey’s 1st video from “The Final Funktier” has got it all.
