Bill Harley

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bill Harley is a children's entertainer who has been called "the Mark Twain of contemporary children's music" by Entertainment Weekly. He uses a range of musical styles and appeals to children and adults with quirky, heart-filled lyrics. He received the 2007 Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album For Children (albums consisting of predominantly spoken word versus music or song) for his Blah Blah Blah: Stories About Clams, Swamp Monsters, Pirates & Dog.
