ABOUT THE CD HANG ON, HENRY!
Winner of a Parents' Choice "Approved" Award (Summer, 2003)
SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL (June, 2003) says, "This is an upbeat, kid-friendly album for the whole family, and Steve Blunt is an artist to watch."
"This is a great cd. Good, songwriting, which is key, and great energy." Bill Harley, children's musician/storyteller
HANG ON, HENRY is getting fantastic reviews from kids and parents alike. It covers a range of musical styles, from the rockabilly title track (about a little brother who flies away on a kite) to the calypso-influenced "Macaroni & Cheese" (about a girl who refuses to eat anything else). The cd celebrates positive values (childhood, family, diversity, conflict resolution) and offers sing-along, move-around, laugh-a-lot fun for the whole family.
