Princess Katie & Racer Steve Live! Revved Up & Ready to Rock! is replete with the vibrant energy of a live Princess Katie & Racer Steve full-band show. Drop-dead great singing and sterling musicianship, punctuated with plenty of laughter and audience participation, make this video as much of an event as it is a concert.
"Flawlessly performed and recorded, "Princess Katie & Racer Steve Live!" is their first live concert DVD that along with the help of Crash the Drummer and Space on Bass perform skits and dances. Terrific fun for kids of all ages...is highly recommended..." Midwest Book Review, Reviewer's Picks
"Princess Katie and Racer Steve bring a quirky combo of fairy-tale ambience, puppets, skits, animation, and upbeat, positive music to this live concert for children. The 10-song set in Revved Up *& Ready to Rock! includes the B-52's-style "Tell Them How You Feel" dealing with emotions, funk-based "Hot Shot" about making friends, "Hey Claire" on sharing, and the rock-ishi "Jeans!" PK & RS, who started out doing their routine for kids at hospitals across NYC, put on a cheerful, high-energy show that appears to be a real hit with the young audience. Recommended." Video Librarian
"You've got drop-dead incredible singing. real musicianship dressed up in whimsical and fun costumes that appeal to their fan-base, tons of laughs, and enough audience participation to make me feel like we were really there.
We LOVED the live concert DVD, and Buttercup (who happens to be a princess in training) certainly had her share of bopping in her 18-mth-old-signature style while Mommy sang along to most of the songs and danced alongside her. I really, really, REALLY recommend this DVD. Even if it is your first introduction to the rockin' world of PKRS, you will not be disappointed. Instead, you and your kids will be coming back for more." Berrie Sweet Picks
Special features on˜Revved Up & Ready to Rock!" include cartoon vignettes and several witty PKRS "newscasts" anchored by none other than West Ginger Liberty, Princess Katie's personal assistant/puppet.
Includes music from Songs For The Coolest Kids and Fast & Feisty! Songs about honesty, sharing, respect, expressing feelings and fun!
Who are Princess Katie & Racer Steve?
Princess Katie & Racer Steve began playing music for kids quite by accident. After spending several years making volunteer visits to kids in hospitals and in foster care dressed as popular TV and movie characters, PK & RS decided to step it up and perform some music for them. Although Racer Steve had been playing guitar for years, Princess Katie had never sung before. They decided to create their own characters and Princess Katie & Racer Steve were born!
With three critically-acclaimed CDs, Songs For The Coolest Kids, Fast & Feisty and Tiny Cool under their belt, they are set to release their brand-new CD, Love Cake & Monsters. Be sure to check out their live concert DVD, Revved Up & Ready To Rock! Now kids across the nation can see them in action as they perform at one of their high-energy concerts!
