From the Artist
We just got an email from a fan in Nantucket, who asked how to pronounce Bzots. It's easy! "Bizots." Or "Bizzots" if you like the letter Z.

Now if someone would only tell us how to pronounce "potato."

About the Artist
What happens when three assembly line robots decide they'd rather follow their dreams than follow their programming? They escape from the factory and start a band, of course! Bzots are a lovable trio of robots that have chosen to follow their dreams of becoming a band rather than follow their pre-programmed orders to build Globocrud's vast array of consumable consumer products. Not to be one-upped by his own inventions, Globocrud's mean old CEO and his secret agents are never far behind, keeping... read more

Powered Up! by Bzots.......2004-04-06

Our whole family likes this CD a lot. It's one that mom and dad can listen to as well. We often go around the house singing "Workin' the Assembly Line" when cleaning up, putting things away, etc. Once we're singing the Bzots songs and marching around like robots, it is much much easier to get our son to help out with putting toys, hanging up his jacket, etc.
Fun CD!

Bzots are welcome in my home any time........2004-04-04

We love the characters and their funky ways. My kids don't watch this sitting down and zoned out, they are dancing and pointing and asking questions. Everytime we watch and listen we notice something new. Definately treat your family to this robot adventure and move your coffee table out of the way.

Rockin' with the Bzots.......2004-04-04

This is a really great kids' CD. I got into the music first via the Bzots DVD, and the tunes are all fresh and fun. Not only that, but it's an eclectic mix of songs, from lullaby to up-tempo, hip-hop/pop. Very entertaining, and highly recommended for kids (and grown-ups!) of all ages.

Music my 2 year old and I both like!.......2004-04-03

My 2 year old son loves the BZOTS DVD so I got the CD for trips in the car. The BZOTS CD is great! The music is very high quality and the lyrics are fun. My whole family enjoys it and, frankly, I'm personally grateful because I find the majority of music made for 2 year olds to be mind numbingly dull or generally irritating.

THANK YOU BZOTS!!!

kickin it all school?.......2004-04-03

My kids love this CD. They really get silly with this one. They want "the marching song!"(assembly line) all the time. My favorite is "Power Down" -- with lyrics like "everyone you will astound, with newly found abilities..." I get all weepy thinking about my amazing kids and filling with mother's pride over thier genius. My kids, however, think that song it sad (they don't go for lulliby's in general). My kids want to "Jam!" and jam they do. I am an 80's gal, and I relate to some of the pop culture (old shcool), but apparently this one is filled with current gems as well. When I am around kids or people "in the know" they seem delighted and crack up over things that are over my head.
In any case, this is a really fun CD. I give it five stars due to the refreshing break I am getting from my kids other favorite music. I think you know what I mean.

Customer Reviews:

Great new artist.......2004-05-10

I first heard Jenny live at the Red River Revel in Shreveport, Louisiana last October (2003). It was a stunniong performance. I purchased both her CD's on site, and discovered that, while the live performance was wonderful, the poor acoustics at the festival had obscured her ability. The intelligent lyrics and the sophisticated construction of the music with great melodies and classic rock rhythms was exciting. I find impossible to decide which album I prefer. While her second album is more professional, the simplicity of the first album is compelling. Regardles, she is for me, the best new artist of 2003.

Beautiful, Powerful, Terrific!.......2000-06-30

There are some great songs on this CD, especially "Music to my Ears" and "Fairy Tale" but it is the feeling of her vocals that make this CD really special. Jenny is a thoughtful lyricist, writes beautiful melody, and brings a freshness in both her style and approach. This is a superb CD by a talented performer: Order it today!

Very good ATHENS SOUND with strong vocal quality.......1999-03-16

Jenny Bruce not only has good writing ability she has the vocal quality to expand her lyrics convincingly - This young woman is a keeper!

Wonderful Artist with a passion for music that rings through.......1999-03-09

I put Jenny Bruce's CD into my player and listened over and over and over again. She has a very "real" and wonderful voice and her lyrics have a true to life feeling to them. There isn't a bad song on the album.I love them all and can't wait for the next album to arrive

Beautiful, Refreshing, and very real.......1999-03-09

Jenny Bruce's debut album presents music written truly from the heart and soul. Jenny's rich vocals and enchanting melodies combined with deep lyrics make this ablum a joy to listen to
