Album Notes

"Cowboy music makes us strong and healthy" ~ Sara K., 41/2 years old

Kid tested - parent and grandparent approved!

Tenderfoot Melody Roundup, is a family album with 13 cowboy songs that will appeal to young buckaroos and buckarettes - and their parents and grandparents, too!

Cowboy music is "family friendly" music with wholesome lyrics and a positive message for kids. KG & The Ranger have taken their Cowboy Music program to many schools, preschools and libraries across the country. This album was inspired by these experiences and by the fascination kids everywhere have for the American Cowboy.

The album includes 11 cowboy classics plus 2 original songs. More than half the songs have the "Tenderfoot Chorale" (ages 5 - 11) singing along. The album is recorded in a simple straight forward style, just the way KG & The Ranger perform these songs live on stage. It will bring back fond memories - but also make you feel that you are hearing these songs for the first time!

National performances have included Silver Dollar City in Branson; Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival at Melody Ranch; Ozarks Folk Center; National Festival of the West; Wild West Arts Club in Las Vegas. They have shared the stage with many western music greats like Roy Rogers, Jr. and Rex Allen, Jr., and have opened for the Sons of the San Joaquin, Riders In The Sky, Wylie and the Wild West, Johnny Western, Don Edwards, Waddie Mitchell and Michael Martin Murphey.
