Friday Fun: The Jimmies, "Mama Said Nog You Out," Starring My Kids

"A few weeks ago, I received a review copy of Mama Said Nog You Out, the new holiday album from our friends The Jimmies. It is an absolute kick, one of those perfect "kids' albums" that works just fine for us grownups, thank you very much. Lucas and Zoe have made the band's version of "I'm Gettin' Nothin' For Christmas" their official, unironic, yet highly appropriate theme song." Click here to read more and WATCH THE VIDEO!

The Jimmies--Practically Ridiculous


"If you take in all the crazy fun details on the I Spy-like CD packaging, you'll find a line on the bottom right of the back cover saying, "May contain tracks of nuts."

The Jimmies--Mama Said Nog You Out--Review and Giveaway

"In their latest new CD, The Jimmies has managed to re-do classic Christmas music in versions that I am still enjoying even this close to the actual holiday. Mama Said Nog You Out is spectacular and hilarious. The Track List which includes titles like “Nogturne in C Minor” and “Marshmallow World” is so funny that just reading the back of the CD makes me smile. But the real treat is in the artists. If you haven’t heard of The Jimmies before now, then I encourage you to check them out immediately. They have a folksy/popsy sound that is somehow different yet strangely appealing at the same time. Although it seems like they specialize in children’s music, their Christmas album proves that the can be fun for the whole family." Click here to read more.
