"I heartily recommend Monsters of Folk, a first album from four young folk singers who got together initially to sing for an Obama campaign rally in Nebraska. At least that is the story I heard when my wife and I were in Omaha this fall to lecture. … I thought that I had discovered a little known group when I came across the Monsters of Folk. Excitedly, this less than musically hip dad, called his daughter who runs a record company in LA to tell of his great find. 'Yeah, pops,' daughter Julie replied, 'I signed the group a few months ago and we just released their album'" (Derek Shearer, "Joy to the World," Huffington Post, 12/4/09).
