The All Around This World: Caribbean CDs are in the works! Recording has started, and while we can’t confidently predict a release date, we can predict, with confidence that there will be one.
There is so much great music in the Caribbean that we know we’ll never be able to shove it all onto one compact disc. We’ve decided to split the songs onto two, one featuring Caribbean for kids from parts of the region that receive substantial and cultural influence from interaction with the Spanish and French (like Cuba, Puerto Rico and Haiti), the other collecting our songs from the Caribbean nations that have been intertwined with the British and Dutch, such as Jamaica and Trinidad.
