The Boogers

Artist Information

Biography

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!

  rock Ramones-style. A sonic pop onslaught, & brief, catchy kid tunes that truly rock."

Of course, their songs are crafted with age-appropriate material. The only sedation going on here is a nice after-show nap.
