Review: The Ark of Music
"Garbage Truck” plants its grimy subject against a pure grunge backdrop, creating the first punk song your kids will ever fall in love with (and, with any hope, you will too!)."

"Tiny Humans, Big World collects fully-formed songs flocked with vibrant creativity and wholesome messages, designed with parents in mind as much as the kids!" Read More
Review: Dancing About Architecture
“Get them while they’re young” might sound like a cliché, but in the right pair of hands, it becomes a valuable tool for using music to help develop young minds. Preschool Rockstar is undoubtedly the right pair of hands, and their debut, Tiny Humans, Big World, pulls off a neat trick: music made for preschoolers that never once sounds like “kids’ music.”

“It’s an album that celebrates the wonder of early childhood without talking down to its audience. In doing so, Preschool Rockstar proves that music for the youngest listeners can be both joyous and artful, charming and substantial. This is more than just an introduction to music—it’s a reminder that great songs can meet us at any age, and sometimes it’s the tiny humans who remind us how big the world really is.” Read More
Recording Academy
Class of 2025
I’m thrilled to be part of the Recording Academy’s 2025 New Member Class! It’s such an honor to join a community of music makers and industry folks who care deeply about where music is headed.
Becoming a member means I get to have a voice in the GRAMMY Awards process and stand up for the people and values that make this work so meaningful. I’m here to support my peers, keep growing, and bring my own perspective to the table.
The Academy is all about diversity—genres, backgrounds, stories—and I’m proud to be a part of that. I believe little listeners deserve big voices in this industry, and I’m excited to bring my voice to the table. Here’s to championing creativity, community, and a whole lot of joy.
