Just Kidding Club Day!
Ralph's World is the musical place where little guys and gals and their folks can rock, rock, rock! and sing, sing, sing! Kids find themselves at to the bottom of the sea, in the driver's seat of a big rig or swinging on a jungle vine in just a few songs. The creation of indie rocker, Disney artist and songwriter Ralph Covert, it’s “indie rock for music fans that still hold their parents’ hands…It’s possible that Mr. Covert will turn out to be the genre’s Elvis Presley, or at the very least, its Elvis Costello” (The New York Times). All ages.
