Album Notes

A Parent's Review:

"We adore Rattle Snakes for Breakfast, by Mr. Nicky! My twin five-year old daughters know each song almost word for word. His messages in such songs like Nerds and Weirdo's has made them conscious of others around them and how we all somehow fit and work in this world. The song Bullies brings front and center that being kind and good to others not only is decent but it eliminates the creation of a Bully. Even though a lesson can be learned from most of the songs, they are still entertaining. We sing them in the car even if we left the CD in the player at home. I love the fact that this is music that opens the lines of communication between Parent and Child.
I laugh, and feel such joy when I hear my Children's laughter from their sheer enjoyment. Mr. Nicky brought fun and learning back into music. Imagine getting that for just a small amount. Compared to all the other high priced games and toys for Christmas this year, this CD Far out weighs them in value; it will be the least expensive, yet smartest gift you can give!"

On "Rattlesnakes for Breakfast," Mr. Nicky thoroughly entertains, engages and educates children. His artistic style and acoustic creative flair make him a hit with parents as well as kids. The songs are genuine, worthwhile, and downright hilarious.

In featured songs such as Nerds and Weirdos, Mr. Nicky talks about how every human being is special and unique. Even the people we might think are “strange” are valuable. As Mr. Nicky puts it: “Without the nerds and weirdos we could never get along/’cause the nerds made our computers and the weirdos wrote our songs”!

In the song Fireman, he tells the story of a boy who grew up to follow his dream of becoming a fireman, despite the negativity of others. Then in Bullies, Mr. Nicky presents another fun song with a character building message about dealing with mean kids. His experience as a teacher allows him to focus on topics kids can really relate to.

After one listen to Rattlesnakes for Breakfast, it’s obvious that Mr. Nicky’s music is a desirable option for anyone looking for quality entertainment for their kids.
