Zooglobble Recommended!: By themselves, the songs or the animation of Gustafer Yellowgold would be worth hearing (or watching). Combined, it's one of the most unique pieces of family entertainment you'll see this year.

Gustafer Yellowgold concerts are a unique blend of live music and moving image. The minimally animated illustrations are accompanied by illustrator/songwriter Morgan Taylor's catchy and original story-songs for a truly different multimedia experience that is entrancing children, teens and adults alike.

Gustafer is a friendly creature who came to Earth from the sun and has an unusual magnetism for making friends with some of Earth's odder creatures. His best friend is Forrest Applecrumbie the flightless Pterodactyl. Gustafer and Forrest built a small cottage-style home on the edge of an uncharted wooded area in Minnesota. He has a pet Eel named Slim (short for Slimothy) and a pet Dragon named Asparagus who lives in his fireplace and loves corn on the cob. Gustafer's pals, the Mustard Slugs practice their math under the shrubbery.

Since his creation in 2005, Gustafer Yellowgold has become an international phenomenon, acclaimed by the New York Times, which said, "The show is a cross between ‘Yellow Submarine' and Dr. Seuss." Entertainment Weekly praised "...The most infectious original songs. It's like tapping into some pleasure center in the brain- both adult and kid...absurdly appealing. Grade: A." New York Magazine named Morgan Taylor "Best Kids' Performer" in its 2008 Best of New York Awards. Take a look at Gustafer's MySpace page to see what his fans think!

The Gustafer Yellowgold Show, with its unique crossover appeal, has performed as the wild-card opening act for Wilco and The Polyphonic Spree. Gustafer recently made his off-Broadway debut at the DR2 Theatre in a new show, Gustafer Yellowgold's Mellow Sensation. Tours to arts centers, children's museums, schools, libraries, cinemas and theaters have taken the show all across the United States, the U.K and even Korea! Taylor's other projects include playing bass for The Autumn Defense (featuring John and Pat from Wilco), as well as a recording project with Tony Award winning songwriter Duncan Sheik.

The award-winning DVD/CD sets Gustafer Yellowgold's ‘Have You Never Been Yellow?' and Gustafer Yellowgold's ‘Wide Wild World' were released by Apple-Eye Productions in 2007.
