Album Notes

"most kids music has a tendency to drive parents crazy . . . but not the tunes on the tia anita project. this disc features rhythm-heavy tunes from around artists like digging rots, mapale, nunca antes, autorickshaw and others that should get kids, and their parents, dancing, all proceeds from the disc go to the stephen lewis foundation."
