Album Notes

Singer, songwriter and children's entertainer Joel Frankel is a big kid who's been entertaining smaller kids and their parents for nearly two decades. But before that...he was in several rock bands performing his original pop/rock songs.

Frankel's four children's albums, "Don't Sit On A Cactus", "I Can't Sit Still", "JoJo's Barnyard Bash" and "Ship of Chocolate Chips," have received numerous awards including the Dr. Toy Best Audio award and the Children's Music Web Award. Frankel's song "We Go Together" was featured in the classic motion picture "Big", starring Tom Hanks. His songs have been on "The Learning Channel," an "NBC-Movie of the Week," and MTV.

He also made a cameo appearance as an accordionist in the movie "Father of the Bride", which starred Steve Martin and Diane Keaton.

Frankel is a member of the venerable Old Town School of Folk Music faculty. His busy performance schedule of over 200 shows each year has included The Taste of Chicago, Navy Pier, The Bozo Show, The Jewish Folk Arts Festival, WGN TV, Festivals and Children's Museums.

This is his debut album for "Groan-ups."
