Zooglobble Recommended!: "Schaefer's a droll songwriter and sharp observer of kids' lives - he not only wrote a song called "There's a Carp in the Tub" but also based it on a real life situation from his own childhood."



Rocket Pop Records announces the release of Robbie Schaefer's SONGS FOR KIDS LIKE US, the first collection of music for kids and families by the singer/songwriter of the critically acclaimed folk-pop band Eddie From Ohio.

With 9 albums and 120,000 independent record sales under their belt, Eddie From Ohio earned the plaudit "the greatest band you've never heard of" from US Airways' Attache magazine. Now, with the release of SONGS FOR KIDS LIKE US, Schaefer presents what easily could be tagged "the best CD your kids haven't heard of-yet."

Never straying far from his folk-pop roots, Schaefer presents a memorable 12-song collection of catchy, clever, and slightly cheeky tunes that take the listener for a romp through musical styles and colorful arrangements that appeal to kids and grownups alike.

Among the original tracks are the tales of a little brother who won't eat anything, a fish in a tub who
eats everything, an accident-prone professor, and an affable cowboy who can only speak backward. (His name, of course: Bob.) Traditional tunes such as "There Ain't No Bugs on Me" and "There's A Hole in The Bucket" receive imaginative treatments to round out the track list.

Guest spots from keyboardist Jon Carroll (Mary Chapin-Carpenter, Starland Vocal Band), trumpeter John Abbracciamento, bassist Matt Grason and EFO bandmates Eddie Hartness and Michael Clem add to the fun. Noted kids' illustrator Jack Desrocher contributes the whimsical character illustrations to the CD packaging.
