Synopsis

Album Description
Well, true to the phrase "Good things take time," two years after the release of our 2002 debut CD Happy Songs, we present Bottle Of Sunshine. The disc offers fifteen brand new Milkshake originals the whole family can groove to. You?ll also find lots of variety here, although most of the songs still live in the rock genre. We recorded "ABC Of Me" live in the studio with a jazz combo. It?s a new take on the Alphabet Song, and each letter stands for some quality or thing that reminds us of how great we are, and how wonderful childhood is. "Boom Boom" turned into a country rock song as we added fiddle and banjo and a "yee-haa". There?s a doo-wop tinged song about having fun in the water called "Woo-Woo." There are some totally acoustic songs ("Bluebird" and "Milkshake!") and some very electrified, all-out rock songs ("School" and "Space Song"). But every song is memorable. And each one was great fun to record. British children?s author/illustrator Alexis Deacon created the cover art for Bottle of Sunshine, along with illustrations for the 16-page booklet accompanying the CD. Please look for his wonderful children?s books "Slow Loris" and "Beegu," both published by Kane Publishers, NY. Bottle of Sunshine also contains a bonus: three Milkshake music videos of songs from Happy Songs. Two of these, "Fingers & Toes" and "Tall", are fully animated. The third, "Happy Song", is a live action video with some animation sprinkled here and there.

"Bottle of Sunshine" is a gallon jug full of magic
Andrew Ellis | 11/09/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Well, my Christmas shopping is done. My wife and I only give presents to children, and I can't find a better gift than this CD. "Book of Dreams," "One Wish" and the title cut make me tear up. "Boom Boom," "Space Song," and "ABC of Me" are nothing but sheer fun. Especially the lyric, "X is for excited, I wish I could spell." Lisa's beautiful voice and Mikel's sweet aocustic guitar work only offer the promise that their third disc will continue this evolution in sophisticated children's music. And that's what it is. Milkshake doesn't play down to kids. It's stimulating, asks for participation and encourages imagination. "Happy Songs" was great. This disc is even better."
Fun Music Grownups can enjoy with their kids!

"Not only do my kids love the music, but I do too!! We've seen them live and they're awesome. Lisa has so much energy and dances around in her "tutu" and those "crazy tights" and Mikel is so awesome with the kids. They are talented musicians who make kids music fun for everyone. Watch them on Noggin - Jack's Music Show. The videos are lively and fun! I hope they'll make a DVD of the videos, including the one's on their web site."
