Latest News:

A NEW Michael & Jello CD is on the way! Michael Anderson and musicians are currently in the studio recording new songs for the CD scheduled for release in Spring 2005. This exciting new project will include original songs as well as old favourites redone in new ways (including hip hop and guitar rock styles). More information and audio samples are coming soon so check back again!

It's in the can! Two new Michael & Jello music videos are ready for their big (or little) screen debut. The first video is for the song Bananas Unite from the "I Wish My Nose was a Chocolate Bar" CD. It features children of different ages acting out the actions to the energetic song including chopping, eating and (most fun) going bananas. The second music video is for the song 5 Little Monkeys from the "Monkey See Monkey Do" CD. This video features the five little girl monkeys jumping on a bed with a visual numeric countdown to encourage young audiences to count (and sing) along. Both videos were tons of fun to make and have received enthusiastic thumbs up from audiences both young and adult. We will post stills and clips from these videos soon!
