The celebrated Canadian singer, songwriter, and producer not only became a fan of the Toronto-based trio but soon&nbsp;struck up a friendship with the trio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before long, Raffi recalls,&nbsp;\u201cDreams of singing together soon turned into the music on&nbsp;<em>Penny Penguin<\/em>. Remote rehearsals went so well that I went from thinking Good Lovelies would sing on a few songs to happily recording their voices on ten of the 14 songs on the album. Songs about hummingbirds, dogs, peace, and much more all sparkle with a fresh sound, a joyful energy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That sparkly freshness includes a host of new Raffi classics for his youngest generation of fans. Among them is the cheerful&nbsp;\u201cPenny Penguin,\u201d&nbsp;which offers a tale about a young penguin as she goes about her day in the snow. Other&nbsp;original highlights include&nbsp;\u201cMuch More Love,\u201d \u201cHum Hummingbird,\u201d \u201cThe Birdies Sing,\u201d&nbsp;and&nbsp;\u201cPeekaboo Song.\u201d&nbsp;The track list also features a variety of classics\u2014including traditional songs like&nbsp;\u201cPeace Like a River,\u201d \u201cWild Mountain Thyme,\u201d&nbsp;and a French children\u2019s&nbsp;lullaby,&nbsp;\u201cDoucement s\u2019en va le jour,\u201d&nbsp;as well as the Ella Jenkins-penned&nbsp;\u201cYou\u2019ll Sing a Song.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Good Lovelies, meanwhile, add magic to ten tracks with their vibrant vocal harmonies. Having grown up with Raffi\u2019s music, all three women were thrilled&nbsp;to have the opportunity to perform alongside him. The widely acclaimed trio, who recently released their seventh studio album,&nbsp;<strong><em>We Will Never Be the Same<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;(via Outside Music), have long enjoyed an international following for their dynamic blend of folk, country, and pop\u2014as well as their intricate, three-part harmonies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Set for release on&nbsp;April 19,&nbsp;<em><strong>Penny Penguin <\/strong><\/em>is currently available for&nbsp;pre-order on CD and digital, while listeners of all ages can stream \u201cPenny Penguin\u201d now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-499968f5 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/raffinews.com\/site20\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/PENNY-PENGUIN-LYRICS-2-1.pdf\">Lyrics <\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/raffinews.com\/site20\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Penny-Penguin-Credits.pdf\">Credits<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Penny Penguin the newest studio album from legendary children\u2019s musician and global troubadour, Raffi, in collaboration with the JUNO award-winning folk-pop trio, Good Lovelies.
