“Out of the Box” is guitar-driven alternative rock for your kids. Blending early rock-n-roll, power pop, and a dash of twangy country, Mr. Doolittle has created a fun, edgy, and educational album for you and your children. A few of the tracks on “Out Of The Box,” such as “The Big Pink Tower” and “Walking On The Line,” are Montessori-specific rock songs that Montessori children should love, but that others will enjoy as well. Parents will especially like the cheeky irony of the Johnny Cash inspired “Wallking on the Line,” the dead-on Elvis impersonation in “The Elvis Pokey” (reminiscent of “Viva Las Vegas”-era Presley), and the hilarious sincerity of “Jammys On,” a bluesy, funky rocker about the pains of not wanting to go to bed that should make going to bed a rockin’ experience from now on. The rest of the album simply rocks! From “The Ballad of Milo the Cat,” a bittersweet and funny true story about the Doolittles’ lost kitten, to “Trees,” a catchy, bouncy tune to help you remember the difference between deciduous and coniferous trees, “Out of the Box” will rock you and your children. So go ahead and get “Out of the Box”!
