Description
This musical yarn is based on the popular 20th century masterpiece by Holling Clancy Holling (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company) of an adventurous little paddle-man who makes his winding way through the Great Lakes to the salt water sea. Inspired by this tale, the band gathered some years back to trace Paddle's journey in song and music. It begins at the headwaters of Lake Superior, twisting and dancing along, carrying stories of people along the way in his battered little wooden canoe touching the hearts of everyone he meets with joy and wonder.
The band really bonded by our mutual rooted desire to celebrate the majesty of our precious Great Lakes. This is a project that we hope will grab the families that have read the book to their kids and those that will be inspired to do so from listening to the music. The songs are emotional, fun, funny, exciting, beautiful, and interesting. Like someone told us that listened to it…”it's classic Song of the Lakes.”

Notes
This recording project "Paddle-to-the-Sea" marks the first CD release in 10 years and its sixth recording in total. The band's role as the Ambassador of the Great Lakes continues and its mission to "spread joy" is further ahead with this recording. All songs are original and are pretty much taken directly out of the book with some artistic liberty taken with the characters and events. Performers included are Lisa Johansson (flutes, whistles, vocals, and guiro); Michael Sullivan (guitars, mandolin, bouzouki, banjo, concertina, and vocals); Ingemar Johansson (guitars, mandolin, djembe, shakers, and vocals); Rick Jones (bodhran, African bells, shakers, and vocals); and Frank Youngman (upright bass and vocals). Enjoy!
