Album Notes

"Awesome, Dude!!!" is Ryan SanAngelo's second children's music CD. It is what is says it is- It's awesome, dude! It's filled with Ryan SanAngelo's blend of catchy and colorful rock and rap songs that have earned him so much praise on the children's music scene. The songs easily get kids moving and singing. The only question is, who will be singing and dancing first, the kids or the parents? Either way, everyone will be smiling! Lots of singing afterward too, these songs get stuck in your head and you'll be happy that they're there.

Songs like "Job To Do" and "Active Place" are sure shot party jams. Perfect for before or after birthday cake. Other songs like "Smile Everyday," "Outside, Yeah!," and "Being An Author" are totally rocking blasts of sunshine. They're like rock candy. Super-sweet and you'll keep wanting more! And trust me, you'll get it. Just listen to Ryan and his wife Elizabeth sing "Color" and "Good Day, Good Night" together!

Some songs were written while Ryan was pursuing his masters degree in elementary education. "Change $$$" was written during his student teaching assignment to teach his 1st graders the values of different coins. "Magnetism" was written to teach children about magnetism in a fun way with an old school rap beat. Ryan SanAngelo's colorful lyrics and excellent rhymes are packed into all thirteen songs and once this album ends, you're bound to hit play again.
