3 Blind Mice

I would like to thank my kid, Razz, for the inspiration to create Groove Kid Nation! All my love to my beautiful wife, Carol, who will forever be my muse. Thanks to all of the incredible musicians that performed on this project -- You each breathed new life into these songs in your own unique way. Thanks to Amanda, Katelyn, and Caroline for your wonderful singing and youthful sounds of joy and laughter! Special thanks to Satnam Ramgotra, Jamey Tate, Nica Brooke, Lynde Hopper, Robert Lee, Cheryl Woods, Mark, Robin, and Paul Youngjohn, and Dean Theiss. And extra special thanks to my parents and parents-in-law – now that I am a parent I can appreciate your love and kindness from an entirely new perspective of awe and gratefulness…Rodney
