What do I think of Bunny Clogs? More! More! More!

I think that one of my roles as a parent is to expose my kids to music that doesn't suck, so when I see one of them reaching to put on Bunny Clogs' CD, More! More! More!, I breathe a little sigh of relief that they are choosing something so unique, funky and lyrically amazing. In fact this kids' CD is so super cool, I could hear a couple of the songs playing late night in the clubs I used to frequent back in the day.

Minneapolis-based Adam Levy is no stranger to the music scene himself; his main band The Honeydogs and side project Hookers $ Blow -- try explaining that one to your kids -- have been around for a good long time. With Bunny Clogs, Adam has put together a real family effort, using his daughters' adorable vocals and his son's amazing artwork all over the family-friendly CD.

Sounding a bit like Bob Dylan and Prince's illicit love child, Adam mixes funk and hip hop with new-age electronica and old-school horns. But it isn't just the sound that draws us again and again to More! More! More! but lyrics in songs like Olive's Olives with its awesomely singable chorus: "I love all of Olive's olives" (say that three times fast). The stories laid out in Confessions of a Teenage Lima Bean and Velveeta Girl and Squatsy could come from the pages of a Shel Silverstein collection, while the chorus in Butter is just fun to sing at the top of your lungs. Amidst all the silliness though, the piano-backed anthem Song for Powderhorn and quietly pretty Lullaby Pie have lovely, uplifting messages that choke me up every time.
