Summer 2007 - Buzzy, Buzzy, Buzz!

Our first book is almost finished. We took some time off to focus on raising our children, and now it's time to get back to work!

Season 5 - American Idol

We are so proud of Lisa Tucker! She rose to the top 10 on Amererican Idol and spent the year touring with them. Her face and her name have become world famous, but we still remember her as "little Lisa with the big voice." You can hear her sing on Shake, Rattle and Rhyme Volume 1.

Lisa recently finished her first Christmas album "Please Come Home For Christmas" and it will be available November 6. Check it out!

September, 2003 - Rocket Baby goes Back to the Studio

Hot off the success of "Shake, Rattle & Rhyme" and after many, many requests from the fans, Rocket Baby has headed back to the studio to record  "Shake, Rattle & Rhyme II" to be in time for the upcoming Yeah Baby Expo in February.  The new CD features several different dance rhythms and all new Rhymes.  With songs such as "Twinkle, Twinkle little Waltz!", "If you're happy and you know it dance the salsa!" and "A-B-C Funk!" it is sure to be a huge hit!

August 25, 2003 - Amazon gets overwhelmed--not once, but twice!!

Apparently there were so many orders at Amazon.com for Shake, Rattle & Rhyme that Amazon ran out and had to re-order.  A few hours later, apparently they realized that it was not enough so they had to put in another order for over 5 times as many CD's as the first order.  Of course, Rocket Baby was happy to ship them off immediately to Amazon so they could satisfy their anxious customers. Rocket Baby is definitely on a roll!

May, 2003 - Kindercare does Rocket Baby

Kindercare, the leading private provider of early childhood care and education in the United States, purchased Rocket Baby, Shake, Rattle & Rhyme for each of their 1,250 schools and then some--2000 CD's in all!  Who says daycare is supposed to be boring!

Mar 7, 2003 - Adrian does Star Search

Adrian Diamond, the talented young singer on Rocket Baby Tracks It's Raining It's Samba! and Itsy Bitsy Cha-Cha!  competed on national television in the juniors competition for Star Search.  All of us locals voted like crazy, and the judges voted Adrian the winner by one star, but sadly, the live televised voting strongly favored the East coast (the show is tape delayed in the West) so the East coast contestant won!  Check out the details of the event here: Adrian's Star Search Bid

Feb 6, 2003 - Lisa goes to Star Search Finals

Feb 1st&2nd, 2003 - Yeah Baby Expo

Over 60,000 people strolled by our booth, many registering for prizes and checking out Rocket Baby for the first time. The booth was constantly crammed with people and hundreds of people took Rocket Baby home for their kids and students!  The Rocket Baby Singers, including Adrian Diamond, Lisa Tucker,  Nikki Berra and Ernie Halter even opened 2 day event by singing on the main stage for a full hour!  Due to the overwhelming success of this years expo, we will most likely be back again in 2004--maybe even with a bigger booth and dance floor to accomodate all of the iterest.  Check out the expo at Yeah Baby Expo.
