Music for Aardvarks and Other Mammals

Music for Aardvarks was created by David Weinstone. Raising his kids in New York City, Weinstone saw a need for songs relevant to their lives that would also address themes universal to children everywhere.

Time magazine declared, “David Weinstone is music to the ears of toddlers and their grateful parents.” MFA is rocking live performances by David Weinstone & The Music for Aardvarks Band. It’s music videos airing nationwide on the Nick Jr. channel. It’s albums that are grounded in real life, yet hip, with songs like “Taxi,” “Bagel,” “Play Date,” and “Subway” – celebrating childhood without hype or straining to be different for the sake of being different. And, speaking of hip, it’s also the hippest music class on the planet, love child of punk and preschool, hailed by notables from Philip Glass to Sonic Youth. 

"It's no exaggeration to say that Weinstone has changed the musical geography of kids music.” – Time Out NY Kids
