Since I’m feeling honest, I’ll tell you that we’ve been enjoying the new Maria Sangiolo CD so much that I almost neglected to post the review!

My first thought when I heard this CD was that this is a concert I’d love to take my children to. Her style is an awesome folksy one with a greater energy than many. It’s evident from her music that she loves what she does and it’s evident by the booty shaking happening in my living room that kids love it too. It’s the kind of music that you simply can’t sit still to and you’ll be humming and singing the songs long after the CD is over. In fact, the CD contains 4 special sing along tracks at the end especially for those sing-along kids!

Many of her songs contain an earth-friendly message that’s admirable and growing ever more important. When sung with her beautiful motherly voice they don’t seem at all lecture-ish (as they certainly would if I sung them to you so I’ll spare you).

This is an independent release and is not available in stores. You can listen to previews and order it here. If you’re a folk fan, you’ll love her!

We’ve got a copy of Under The Mystic Sea to give to a lucky T.O.P. reader. To enter, email theopinionatedparent@gmail.com with Maria Sangiolo in the subject line by midnight MST tonight and tell us the name of Maria’s 2004 release.
