| Dear
Friends,
My new CD is ready! It's so beautiful, words can't describe it.
Or can they? The New York Post tried these words:
"Different from any other children's album out there, and all the
better for it."
Nice, but, really... writing about music is like dancing about architecture.
Music is something you've just got to HEAR!
On "I'm Growing" you will:
HEAR Mozart’s 40th symphony rendered in a 3-minute acapella vocalese
saga!
HEAR a guy who’s allergic to waltzes!
HEAR milk-drunk choruses of mewling cats!
HEAR how "Hillary Rodham" rhymes with "Bottom"!
HEAR peppy toe-tappin’ pop tunes about Growing, Simplicity, and
Raising Heck in the Library!
(Hear here)
You will also:
SEE cool cover art by Irana Shepherd! (of Old Mr. Mackle Hackle
Book fame)
SEE a 16 page full-color booklet full of lyrics, funny drawings
by Gunnar, and stories about the songs!
SEE what Gunnar looks like when he's as tall as the Empire State
Building!
We're talking 15 brand new songs! (except for Shenandoah, which
was written ages ago but is Freshly Recorded)
You can DOWNLOAD it NOW via:
iTunes
CDBaby
(it will be available via other download services shortly)
You can pre-order CDs at your favorite CD store (online or actual)
for March 18 shipment:

And, if you're hankering for a freshly-pressed cd RIGHT NOW, you

website
and CDBaby!
What's that? You want to hear it before you buy it? You can hear
complete tracks (not just snippets) at the "I'm Growing" page, and

I'm so proud of this CD - I think it's my finest work yet! Go, listen,
enjoy, and tell your friends.
Best wishes and blessings to all of you!
Gunnar
