In the world of children’s music, a world tightly controlled by Disney, Barney and Sesame Street, it takes a voice of unique innovation to break the mold, get attention and make a beautiful noise.

With WELCOME TO GARDEN STREET, Jim Salestrom and Nancy Mills have done just that. They have created an intelligent family CD, music that can be played at home, on long trips, or wherever you go without driving adults crazy or children to boredom. That’s a fine line to walk, but listen once and you’ll realize that they have accomplished it here.
Incidentally, Jim Salestrom is one of the best known studio musicians in the country, having recorded with and played background for John Denver, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt, Pure Prairie League, and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. He’s traveled and performed all over the world and played for four United States Presidents.

And yet, the latest challenge is the greatest challenge; breaking into a tight market with set ideas, thanks to an innovative and creative approach to music, imagery and fun.

And isn’t that what children's music should really be about?
