Dreaming Of Scarlet Begonias, Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions Of Grateful Dead, 4.28
Grateful Dead is receiving a baby-friendly transformation from award-winning lullaby series Rockabye Baby with the release of 'Lullaby Renditions of Grateful Dead' on April 28th. Grateful Dead hits like “Friend of the Devil,” “Casey Jones,” and “Truckin'” have all been reworked for newborns.
Grateful Dead’s signature blend of jazz, bluegrass, rock, and soul are traded for a soothing pallet of xylophones, marimbas, wood blocks, bells and more. The CD cover depicts a charming bear surrounded by the band's iconic imagery of red roses. The CD liner notes include Grateful Dead-themed children's games and an aptly named baby food recipe – “Touch of Green."
Making rock music baby-friendly and kids' music adult-friendly, Rockabye Baby has given its lullaby treatment to the work of more than 60+ artists including U2, Coldplay, Foo Fighters, Maroon 5 and Bruce Springsteen. The series has sold over 1.6 million albums, has been praised by outlets including People, Spin and NME, and counts among its avowed fans Fergie, Elton John, Victoria Beckham and Ellen DeGeneres, who says the series “puts [kids] to sleep with cool music that you'll want to hear as well.”
All Rockabye Baby releases are available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon and the Rockabye Baby site. To hear samples of lullabied music from The Beatles, Kanye West, Madonna, Guns N' Roses and more, click here.
