Caspar Babypants Returns!

The music group Caspar Babypants returns to the University Bookstore in Mill Creek on Saturday April 21st. The show, generously sponsored by Top Pot Doughnuts starts at 10:30AM. So, get there early to get a good spot, because these shows are extremely popular.

Some reviews from the band website:

“Caspar Babypants isn’t music for just kids it’s fantastically hooky, cool, authentic pop. Chris Ballew is master and has proven it in two bands now.” Stone Gossard-Pearl Jam

“Caspar Babypants makes exquisitely hummable, catchy tunes, like top 40 for the under 4 set. Great for singing games, car trips, for getting the whole family to sing together.” – Gunnar Madsen – Musician & children’s artist

Caspar Babypants is Chris Ballew from the band, Presidents of the United States making music for kids (and their parents & grandparents). For more information about the band visit http://babypantsmusic.com
