Ellis Paul - The Dragonfly Races

This is Ellis Paul's 14th Album and his debut into the Family/Childrens music genre. The Dragonfly Races builds upon the great American folk tradion in children's music with original songs that bring a fresh take on empowering children to be involved in their world. The colorful digipak CD includes a 24 page booklet with illustrations painted and sketched by Ellis himself.

"Paul is one of folkdom's most incisive and intimate songwriters. Now a doting father, his first family album, Dragonfly Races, bubbles with buoyant, hummable songs that appeal to kids and parents - and incite good conversations between them. As simple as the songs are, they don't duck tough issues; a fairy tale, for instance, becomes a timely political allegory about leaders who peddle fear for their own purposes. Paul sings movingly about what really worries new parents and turns lazy dragonflies, gentle monsters, and resilient roses into useful metaphors for world peace, the power of faith, and the delights of a sleepy day. It's nice to see a world-class songwriter focus on kids without lowering either his sights or his standards." -Scott Alarik (The Boston Globe)
