ABOUT THIS ALBUM


Album Notes
Contrary to popular belief, the three members of Recess Monkey were not raised in a jungle by actual monkeys.
I mean, really: that's absurd!
They did however spend a number of years attending a jungle school RUN by monkeys, earning their degree in "Going Bananas." With honors! The boys liked all of the Monkey subjects, but took a special liking to Monkey Shines. Since their departure from Monkey State, Recess Monkey has taken instead to rocking the Monkey House.
Recess Monkey is made up of three elementary school teachers from Seattle who rock out in their classrooms as much as they do on stage. Their album "Aminal House" was prasied by Stefan Shephard of Zooglobble.com who said, ""Aminal House is an album that must have been a blast to make, chock-full of creativity. The album is never less than interesting, and always a melodious spin. Definitely recommended."

Tamara Turner, CD Baby


Made up of three elementary school teachers from Seattle who “rock out in their classrooms as much as they do on stage,” Recess Monkey combines the sharpest, most keen breeds of rock and pop, from hints of Beatles pop to well-crafted singer/songwriter folk to Billy Joel-like piano pop to zany surfy rock to deep-swaying, swamp-touched country. What is particularly memorable about their album is the ingeniously clever, playful and comical approach to their music; consider an argument between a flying squirrel and a climbing squirrel as to who is the better athlete, a pigeon-toed cheetah who doesn’t like to go fast, to a tiny monkey who has trouble peeling a banana but wants to be an astronaut. Recess Monkey writes and produces their songs with 150%, passing the true test of a great kid’s album: it has the ability to keep adults smiling, tapping their foot and chuckling, even by the 20th track (literally).
