Novelties

K-Gr 4—Recess Monkey, the trio of Drew Holloway, Jack Forman, and Korum Bischoff, return with an album of 14 new songs on which they employ their quirky blend of rock and pop styles from across the decades to draw listeners into silly songs about things like a unicorn who is in love with a narwhal, a "Sweaty Yeti" who was seen running through the forest, and the mustaches of the world being set free. With a sound often compared to that of the Beatles, the group do a great job of mixing silly subjects with topics that children can easily relate to, such as the joy of a piggyback ride, playing music on pots and pans, show and tell at school, and trying to get even with an older brother. It may take a couple of times through for listeners to fully absorb the lyrics, but when they do, they will enjoy the songs even more.
