"It was a pleasure to discover this grass-roots artist with a keen historical consciousness and a wonderfully appealing musical style."

the folknik - San Francisco Folk Music Club

"Gerri Gribi sings in a clear, concise voice that echoes the purity of the early Joan Baez combined with the authority of the later...A thoroughly entertaining performer, as well as one with a refreshing point of view."

Madison Capital Times

"Thanks for singing about something besides your love life!"

Judith Gennet

Gerri Gribi with Tom Pease $15.00
A lot of the kids who grew up with Monsters now have kids (and grandkids!) of their own. We've had many requests for this music on CD, but just didn't have the energy to do a full release. So we had the original master tape remastered into digital format, plus I've added SIX favorites from my other children's recordings. Your CD will be burned on demand, hand inscribed and numbered...nothing fancy, but all your favorite music can now be transferred to your computer or MP3 player!

Garbage - I'm Gonna Tell - A Place in the Choir - All the Good People - Shalom - Go Tell Aunt Rhody - Magic Penny - Molly Malone - Bed is Too Small - Fod - Rubber Blubber Whale - Monster in the Closet - Circle of the Sun - Dona
