BRAND NEW 2007 RELEASE!

The Challenger Baseball Song and Other Hits

When Ben’s old friend Tony Chironno sent him lyrics to a song extolling the virtues of Challenger Baseball, Ben saw his chance to help Little League’s fastest growing division.

The Challenger Division is a place for handicapped kids to play ball in a totally supportive environment. Ben Rudnick and Friends put this CD together as a fundraiser disc to help raise money for equipment, field rental and umpires.

Featuring The Challenger Baseball Song, this CD features some new and some live versions of Ben Rudnick and Friends favorites.

Blast Off!

“The words "catchy" and "irrepressible" just begin to describe the string-band music uncorked by a quintet of gifted instrumentalists.” — Downbeat Magazine

Fun and Games

It’s not hard to figure out why this CD is called “Fun and Games.

Songs like “Spin” and “Macaroni & Cheese” will have kids - and adults - laughing out loud as they recognize themselves in the lyrics.

Hopscotch” jumps along at a high energy pace, while “Sally Salamander” weaves a tale that keeps kids guessing about what will happen next. But the real story behind the “Fun and Games” name is the attitude; this CD is so positive, you can’t help but feel good listening to it.

jewel box packaging with 6 panel insert containing lyrics and info

 

Emily Songs

Conceived while creating music for a kid's birthday party. The songs and melodies are fun and engaging for children of all ages.

"I Like Silver, I Like Gold" blends children's love of colors with rhymes and an infectious rhythm. Children and parents alike will relate to "I Need a Hand", a song that has some serious fun with what it means to cross the street and to just get through the day.

Mixed with the originals are classics, such as "Skip to My Lou", done as you've never heard them before— kids will be unable to resist singing along. A couple of good old-fashioned fiddle tunes round it all out.

If this album doesn't get you dancing, nothing will!
