Editorial Reviews

"C'mon an' Swing in my Tree!" is a quality recording of twelve original children's songs by The Sunflowers packaged in a charming fourteen page board book illustrated by top children's artist Giselle Potter. Gifted storyteller and singer Terri Taylor Fontaine is the groups' lead vocalist, and her husband, Michael, writes the songs, sings backup, and plays guitar. Jon Walmsley produced the CD with Michael. Jon, who you'll remember as the musical brother Jason on The Waltons TV series, is thirty-year veteran of the music business in Los Angeles and Nashville. He plays every instrument he keeps in his closet on this album. The CD is enclosed in a colorful board book with eight illustrations by Giselle Potter, who is best known for her many children’s books, including “The Big Box” with Toni Morrison, the delightful “Quinton Fenton Herter III,” and her own autobiographical books, “The Year I Didn’t Go to School” and “Chloe’s Birthday.” Giselle is also frequently published in The New Yorker Magazine and The New York Times. The Sunflowers' music is sure to please children and parents alike, with warm vocals, beautifully crafted lyrics, and a unique blend of 60's pop, bluegrass and folk.
