For over fifteen years Spare the Rock, Spoil the Child has been providing the soundtrack to thousands of childhoods around the country. The show plays “indie music for indie kids,” including the best of music aimed at kids like Dan Zanes, Moona Luna, Lunch Money, Caspar Babypants, and They Might Be Giants, right along side kid-friendly tracks from the likes of The Ramones, Ella Fitzgerald, Brian Eno, Andrew Bird, Fishbone, and more. One thing it’s not is your typical kids’ programming.
This week, Sesame Street music director Bill Sherman will call in to talk about the new Jam Van album and how one ends up writing over 3,000 songs, plus we’ll hear new songs from Lin-Manuel Miranda and Brandi Carlile from that album. And there’s more! It’s indie music for indie kids.
