'Nother educator lady writing original material with her school kids. This is basic piano/kiddie choral sound but with amazing vocals from the kids and incredible songwriting. Several upbeat songs including WOW ode to James Brown. Other songs with social messages impact on a deeper level. A big fave around here.

Hear "James Brown".
