This week on Pied Piper Radio we observe these hot, dog days of summer by playing songs and stories about the animal fondly known as "man's best friend." We also have a set of songs about books lined up, in honor of the ongoing summer literacy programs that can be found at libraries nationwide. We have beats and scratches in store, featuring songs that GO! including ones about big wheels, roller skates and race cars.
Our featured album is Outside Voices, the debut album from The Pop Ups. We also have new music from The Not-Its! and The Jellydots, and have favorites from Yo Gabba Gabba, Kimya Dawson, Frances England and Secret Agent 23 Skiddoo.
