This holiday season Animal Fair scoped the music industry for some of today’s hottest animal tunes! Today’s musicians are barking up the talent tree with these hot hits.
HAPPY CLUCKING HOLIDAYS
The Greatest Album of Christmas Music Clucked by a Human Chicken Ever!
Musician Dirk Keysser goes where no man (or chicken) has gone before! In an attempt to celebrate the holiday season, Keysser himself clucks his way to Christmas caroling fun. Keysser transforms classic holiday tunes like “Deck the Halls” and “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” into a clucking frenzy – all of which he conceived on his own! The CD is original, entertaining and quite amusing for people of all ages.For more on this
original yuletide fun, visit www.happycluckingholidays.com.
A DOGG IS A DOG by Jack Brown
A production of Crazy Fox Productions in New York, “A Dog is a Dog,” is fit for the child in all of us!
All of the songs in this collection are written and sung by Jack Brown and inspired by his two loving dogs – Tequila (“mostly Chihuahua and always hungry”) and Baby, Brown’s dachshund (“a small dog with a large personality.”) Brown is a former songwriter for the popular kid’s show “Captain Kangaroo” and has certainly taken his hip ability to the next level. The music on A Dog is a Dog varies from country to folk, from blues to rock and much more. It appeals to dog lovers of all ages and works the senses!
