Put A Little Jazz In Your Children's Day With Coal Train Railroad!

I've been enjoying a relaxed week here at The Southern Institute.  I've been laying low on the blog front and enjoying the time with my husband and children while Abby is on winter break and Tom has long weekends off of work.  Now that Christmas is over I feel like I can really relax and play.  We've been listening to music, playing board games, playing with friends, doing extreme dot to dots, and enjoying all of the wonderful Christmas gifts.  Tonight we've been listening to the new CD by Coal Train Railroad and loving it!

Coal Train Railroad is made up of two wonderful local songwriters and musicians that my husband and I have the privilege of knowing.  One of the great things about Nashville is the abundance of talent!  Katy Bowser Hutson is a friend of mine and one half of Coal Train Railroad.  Along with uber-talented musician Chris Donohue, they make a jazz duo who create fun jazz music for children.  This is real jazz music with real instruments, not some cheesy jazz muzak with synthesized pianos and horns.  Katy provides the vocals with a retro jazz sound that is sure to please kids and parents alike.  With songs like "I'm Diggin' Me" (for your little superhero) and "I Hab a Code", you'll be tapping your feet and giggling along.

Here's a video of Coal Train Railroad performing "Bellybutton" at Lincoln Center in New York City.



Isn't that just too much fun???  Real jazz for kids that parents will love too!  If you ask me, Coal Train Railroad Swings should be part of every family's music collection.

Katy would love to give two of you your very own copy for your music collection, so were giving two CDs away this weekend!  Thank you, Katy!
