The Dragonfly Races
By Ellis Paul
Black Wolf Records
All ages; $15
Ellis Paul's entrance into the family/children's music genre marks a refreshing masterpiece. Taking inspiration from his two daughters, this dynamic folk singer delivers a project so sophisticated that at first spin you might not recognize it as a kid's record, musically speaking. Paul's unique turn of a phrase is creative and insightful. Coupled with the earthy, acoustic soundtrack, The Dragonfly Races provides a rich, soulful listening experience that gives young ears an appreciation for a music format that might not otherwise engage them. — chad young
