Groovy soul version of Itsy Bitsy Spider that introduces children to musical instruments.\r
\r
Groove Kid Nation is an educational childrens music label created by veteran record producer and keyboardist Rodney Lee. The label strives to introduce kids to real musical instruments played by top L.A. musicians. In addition, Lee is also a first-time dad who decided to create what he could not find for his son: music reminiscent of growing up in the funk-filled, soul-infused 1960s and 70s. \r

The Wheels on the Bus recasts classic childrens songs as funky soul foot-stompers. Along with the title track, Itsy Bitsy Spider, Froggy Went a Courtin, and The Alphabet Song become not just danceable but likeable tunes whose rhythms all but demand repeated listening. A few original pieces are also thrown into the mix.\r
\r
Each tune features a whimsical animal charer performing a solo on its instrument, and an enclosed 10-page booklet features illustrations of these new animal friends.\r

Ten percent of the wholesale price of The Wheels on the Bus will be donated to CARE, a leading humanitarian organization fighting poverty.
