It all started with a simple idea, really: to make a CD of kids' music that adults could enjoy, not just tolerate- a collection of original songs for parents who appreciate the likes of Jack Johnson, Nick Drake, and Aimee Mann. The result is a treasure chest of luminous harmonies and sophisticated lullabies that are unlike any children's music you've ever heard. It's A Big World is a thoughtful, nuanced, and long-overdue departure from the Wheels-On-The-Bus rut that children's music generally veers into. These are songs by two gifted musicians (and parents) who understand the difference between sweet and saccharine- and who know their audience does, too. Most importantly, though, they are songs with heart.
