Michael The Rockenss Monsters

Make no mistake, I’m a sucker for a good pirate song. So when I get an email about a tune called ‘Pirate Song’, I’m going to give it a listen.

Michael and the Rockness Monsters is a new project from Michael Napolitano, who had previously founded Preschool of Rock. The band’s debut self-titled album will be released on February 26th.

‘Pirate Song’ reached #2 on Kids Place Live over the summer and is now officially getting a formal video treatment. Dadnabbit is proud to premiere the video for ‘Pirate Song’

Michael and the Rockness Monsters is available for pre-order on Amazon or you can go grab ‘Pirate Song’ on iTunes.

Seattle’s The Not-Its! ask a simple question with the name of their new record: Are You Listening?

If you’re not, you should be.

After a rare 2 year break between records, The Not-Its!

) – The Not-Its! are not short on ideas. The band’s sharp and witty lyrics with strong vocals by lead singers Sarah Shannon (Velocity Girl) and Danny Adamson are on full display with Are You Listening?. Songs like “Grandad is a Spy” “Don’t Fear The Dentist” and “Traffic Jam” (which channels Rocket From The Crypt) are just a blast of energy.

Dadnabbit is proud to premiere the video for the first single, “Dance With Me”. The multi-plane video was directed by Chris Looney (who provides insight on the video creation process)

Review: Playdate – We All Shine

Leave a reply

PlayDate
Play Date is Greg Attonito of Bouncing Souls and his partner in crime, Shanti Wintergate. They have returned with their second album, We All Shine, and shine they do. The record is the follow up to their debut record Imagination that was released on Mike Park’s Fun Fun Records. Despite being musicians for decades, writing music for families is an entirely different beast. And not nearly as simplistic as some might think. Thankfully, PlayDate are starting to find their groove. We All Shine is a gleeful, power pop paradise.

Topics on this album are what you would expect from a band with only two family records under their belt – Colors, hugs, love and a cardboard box. We All Shine is also interspersed with witty PSAs about fruits and vegetables that keep the album moving.  Greg & Shanti show signs of really stretching the kindie genre in new directions.  I’m anxious for what’s in store for albums three, four and five (and hopefully more).  Seriously, go buy this record so that have that opportunity.

Standout Tracks: We All Shine, Ninja Pajamas & Colors.

You can buy the record for a mere $10, right here.
