Another new kids' group I love...The Boogers' Road to Rock is fun for punks young and old....Crowe's
self-penned songs are worth the price of the CD alone...Lots of short, fun, loud songs ... perfect for
your budding rocker!"

"Lots of (kids' music) artists have dabbled in the garage/punk/pop style, but the Boogers do nothing but
rock Ramones-style. A sonic pop onslaught, & brief, catchy kid tunes that truly rock."

The aptly named The Boogers perform their hard-driving, purely chord-driven rock n' roll for youngsters in a style reminiscent of New York punkers The Ramones. Of course, their songs are crafted with age-appropriate material. The only sedation going on here is a nice after-show nap. - Chicago Tribune

Bio
Winner of the National Parenting Publications GOLD Award for Children's Audio!!
The Boogers are the brainchild of musician Paul Crowe (aka Crusty Booger). Paul spent the late 80's-90's playing, writing and touring the U.S. as a bassist with a number of Chicago-based punk bands. Somehow, across 6 albums and hundreds of shows, Paul completed a Ph.D in Developmental Psychology at Loyola University, found the love of his life and became the proud father of three sons.
What came next was a natural evolution -- he married his passion for classic punk to his knowledge of child and language development through music to create hyped-up music inspired by the stripped-down sound of the Ramones. Children's music that brings the chord-driven rock!
