San Francisco preschool teacher Mr. Greg and Cass McCombs announce Mr. Greg & Cass McCombs Sing and Play New Folk Songs for Children, their first album of original children’s songs, out August 18th on Smithsonian Folkways, and present its single/video, “Little Wilma Wiggly Worm.” Mr. Greg (aka Greg Gardner) and Cass McCombs began collaborating together as Bay Area teenagers — skateboarding, making movies, sharing records, and writing the sort of “silly songs” they’ve continued to write together well into adulthood. Inspired by beloved Folkways classics by Ella Jenkins, Lucinda Williams, Michael Hurley and Woody Guthrie, Mr. Greg & Cass McCombs Sing and Play New Folk Songs for Children collects songs that Gardner wrote for his own students, as arranged by McCombs.
