Covered in Kidfolk, Vol. 11: On Keeping It Local Plus: WIN the Putumayo Kids Acoustic Dreamland CD!

Covered in Kidfolk, Vol. 11: On Keeping It Local  Plus: WIN the Putumayo Kids Acoustic Dreamland CD! As we've alluded to in our recurring Covered in Kidfolk series, there's a growing universe of family-friendly music out there that doesn't suck, and a large portion of it seems to be centered around the American Northeast region which we call home. Not all of it is folk, of course - increasingly, alternative music, world music, and even rap have found a niche in the hands and ears of cool moms and dads, who continue to insist on healthy yet artistically mature songs which they can enjoy alongside their offspring.

Call Me: Bananaphone

Call Me: Bananaphone Raffi : Bananaphone [ purchase ] Rhonda Vincent : Bananaphone [ purchase Country Goes Raffi - it's amazingly awesome!] Seriously: this song isn't as bad as you think it is. Sure, it's made for kids. It's plenty silly, enough to have staying power as viral meme in the digital world. It's got such a high catchiness quotient, it's prone to get stuck in the brain for days.

Having an Act by Not Having an Act: CoS at HullabaLOU '10

Having an Act by Not Having an Act: CoS at HullabaLOU '10 It seems like the only thing cooler than being a hipster is claiming not to be one. So lest we be considered hipsters I decided to cover some music that hasn't been "hip" in 40 years by attending Louisville, KY's inaugural HullabaLOU Music Festival in Louisville, KY. The event spread out over three days at Churchill Downs, the legendary home of the Kentucky Derby. It was cool seeing bands on the infield, in a place with so much rich history, and it was cool for a new music festival to [...]

Covers Project: Dolly Parton's 'Jolene'

St. Vincent and Justin Vernon - Jolene (Music Hall of Williamsburg, 1.23.10)
She might be better known today for her flamboyant style, plastic surgery excesses and dumb blond stage persona, but before she became a pop-culture caricature, Dolly Parton was a tremendous singer, under-rated songwriter and country music ambassador to the world. By the age of 13, Parton had already been signed to a label and appeared at the Grand Ole Opry and was well on her way to being dubbed the "Queen of Country Music". To date, she has 25 number-one singles and a record 41 top-10 country albums. Along with classics like "Coat of [...]

Joe Nichols: Singing About ‘New Things’ And ‘Old Friends’

Take one listen when Joe Nichols sings and one thing is apparent. He is a country singer. That direction has been very apparent from the start - even when it "cost" him a chance to go with another style. "I had a rock and roll phase for about ten minutes when I was in the ninth grade," the singer joked to LimeWire Music Blog. "I was in a rock band until I sang my first rock song, and the drummer said 'You might be a little too country for this band.' I said 'I figured I was, but [...]

Midnight shakes the memory

Midnight shakes the memory As a madman shakes a dead geranium. I seem to have done a fair bit of dead geranium shaking recently (literally and figuratively) and my northern exploits have meant that I've seen a fair whack of midnight sun. So, let's have some songs about the witching hour to celebrate the nights drawing in. Listen: Porter Wagoner - Midnight (this is an absolute corker) Listen: Rhonda Vincent - Midnight Angel Listen: Buddy Holly - Midnight Shift (oddly, this seems a [...]

Covered in Folk: Dolly Parton (Sarah Harmer, Kasey Chambers, Paula Cole, Mindy Smith and more!)

Covered in Folk: Dolly Parton (Sarah Harmer, Kasey Chambers, Paula Cole, Mindy Smith and more!) As a child of the eighties, I grew up with a popcultural impression of Dolly Parton as a rhinestone MILF, the ditzy blond of 9 to 5 and Islands in the Stream , famous for being famous. When my father passed me her 2001 folk/bluegrass album Little Sparrow , which mixes her own originals with several great and surprising covers, I was startled to find myself a fan of the album, more than merely appreciative of the sweet longing in her clear, delicate performance, but I figured it [...]

Covered in Kidfolk, Part 2: Loudsongs and Dancearounds for Cool Moms and Dads

Covered in Kidfolk, Part 2:  Loudsongs and Dancearounds for Cool Moms and Dads School's been out for days, and I'm already exhausted. But after a whirlwind tour of relatives and sled runs, Sturbridge Village sleigh rides and Santa stocking mornings, the kids are sugared up, full of pep and peppermint. What to do with a case of the sillies? What better time for another round of Covered in Kidfolk? Last time on Covered in Kidfolk we brought you a sweet set of lullabies and softsongs ; songs in that post are still live, just in case today's songs tire [...]
