Program Description:

Gooooo Team Spaghetti Eddie! "It's so much better when we're together, let's go have a ball!" sings Brendan Parker from the duo known as Spaghetti Eddie! With Erick Alexander on drums and vocals, they play family friendly songs from their albums "Spaghetti Eddie! and Other Children's Song", "Spaghetti Eddie! and Other Children's Songs Vol. 2", "Spaghetti Eddie! and Other Children's Songs Vol. 3", and "Spaghetti Eddie! And Other Children's Songs Vol.4" Topics of songs include colors, outer space, friendship, days of the week, bugs, trains, robots, dinosaurs, and of course spaghetti! The best part of being on a team is having fun together. Speaking of fun, these songs will have everyone learning, singing, jumping, and shaking until time expires. Score!!!
