Putumayo Presents - Australian Playground

[ Putumayo World Music / CD ]

Release Date: Friday 13 June 2014

A musical adventure to Australia with fun songs about kangaroos, didgeridoos and so much more. Australian Playground is a collection of songs that will transport listeners to the magical landscapes of the land down under. Featuring music from some of Australia's most compelling children's mu­sicians, Aboriginal groups and singer-songwriters, Australian Playground exemplifies the diversity of Australia's pe­oples, cultures, animals and environments.

Australian Playground is a children's album from the popular world music label Putumayo. Among the album's ten enjoyable tracks are easygoing reggae tunes like the NEO's "Marrtjina (Let's Go)," swinging acoustic blues numbers like Rosie Burgess' "Random Acts," and breezy folk songs like Don Spencer's "Kangaroo (The Super Marsupial)." Like other releases in this Putumayo series, Australian Playground focuses on songs with buoyant, sunny melodies and a worldly down-under flavor.
