"Purely Delightful"...In this title album "PEAS AND HONEY", the premier recording from Sweet Street Records, children and parents alike will enjoy enchanting melodies paired with traditional and original verse. Featuring wonderful Broadway Musicians and fresh voices, PEAS AND HONEY captures the magic of childhood with sweeping melodies and charming lyrics.
Featuring vocalist, and New York based musical theatre performers (and parents of two!), Jennifer and Mark Montague, along with the sweet voice of their daughter, this album is highlighted with some of the clearest and purest vocals around. From the sweetness of "Peppermint Dreams" to the country folk charm of "My Own Fairy" to the gorgeous "Irish Lullabye", this CD has it all. The influence of Broadway is heard throughout, with wonderful musicians from Broadway's finest theatres, capturing the lovely writing of Jennifer Montague and Randy Cohen.
Randy Cohen (Broadway's Wicked, Aida, Titanic, Hairspray, etc...) plays the keys beautifully while the bright voice of Jennifer Montague (The Secret Garden, Carousel, Into the Woods, Beauty and The Beast, etc..) sings with energy and spunk.
The bonus track "Dick Whittington and His Cat" is a real treat while "Mr Nobody" will have your kids laughing and smiling.
Your kids will LOVE this CD with it's fun uptempos and sweet ballads and lovely poems. It's sure to be a hit for years to come. We highly recommend this fabulous premier CD.

a warm and fuzzy CD
author: Talkin' Broadway -Rob LesterSee Talkin Broadway website for entire review: "With tracks titles like "Peppermint Dreams," "Sweet And Low," and "The Sugarplum Tree," you can be assured of a fix for your sweet tooth. This is a children's album that features a child singer as well as some Broadway musicians taking a holiday from the pits of shows like Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Rent, Spelling Bee and the kid-friendly Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. "....."Embellishing with music, a few sound effects and more words, they have come up with a warm and fuzzy CD with no apologies for its old-fashioned (let's say "timeless") feel. Enough producers of kiddie fare try to make their product "contemporary" with loud, cheaply done, watered-down rock sounds. It's encouraging to know that some people believe children will respond to poems and interpretations that are cute without being calculated. "...."Jennifer has a very appealing vocal quality, energetic yet soothing, and certainly youthful....has a bit of a little mermaid quality swimming through her voice"....."The music is likably accessible throughout, simple but not simplistic. With a healthy dose of comforting sounds and lullabies, it would make a good bedtime album.....Pleasant dreams!"
