Bear Hunt CD
What you don’t see is the complete and total meltdown that happened before I put the Bear Hunt CD in to play!! Bear Hunt is full of catchy tunes! Happy music! This wonderful cd is a little bit country, folk, reggae, pop and some New Orleans Street Music to boot. Josh and The Jamtones are awesome!! Alice and I are in the car a LOT! We love the Kids Place Live on XM and Josh & The Jamtones sing some of our okay fine, MY favorite songs! Jump Up and Iko Iko WHICH by the way landed them the #1 spot for 13 weeks!!
I love this cd because Alice is getting a taste of all kids of music. She sways to some and rocks out to others. This short clip shows Alice happily swaying. I did y’all a favor and cut the screaming fit before the cd started.
I even love the CD cover art!!
Special guest Father Goose (featured on most of the Dan Zanes family albums, including the GRAMMY winning Catch That Train and GRAMMY nominated House Party) brings his authentic, “King of the Dance Party” Caribbean presence to Bear Hunt!, contributing vocals to an up-to-date version of the traditional spiritual “Swing Low” and serving as a modern-sounding “Hype Man” on the Caribbean-influenced “I Love U.”
Noted for getting families up and dancing, Josh & the Jamtones packed their acclaimed, 2012 debut CD JUMP UP! with massive dance party action. While Bear Hunt! continues to deliver plenty in the get-up-and-dance department, the album expands this energy by the introduction of a cornucopia of musical styles, all delivered with a razor-sharp sense of current musical taste. Josh & the Jamtones slip effortlessly from New Orleans-style street music, roots/reggae, second-wave ska, pure folk, folk-punk, alt-country, and classic country/bluegrass to an epic choral finale of MGM proportions.
The six-member Josh & the Jamtones band began performing in 2011 and quickly became so popular that, in record time, they received offers to play such venues as the Life is Good Festival, Fenway Park, Earthfest, The Regent Theatre, Coolidge Corner, Kindiefest, a special Sirius/XM Kids Place Live New Year’s Eve broadcast, and even opening for The Wiggles!

This sounds like a good CD – you dont hear much reggae anymore. I like some of it. I like when we are driving and playing music and the kinds are singing to it or booping around . They learn so quick
