Jack & Kitty Jack & Kitty
Jack & Kitty
Jack and Kitty have been called "one of the most entertaining acoustic groups in the Midwest" by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. Kitty has a Jamaican uncle named Bunny. Jack's babysitter was Tiny Tim. So it was inevitable the two would meet at an arts high school, fall in love and spend the rest of their lives making music and art together. Maybe we should explain. Kitty's uncle is Bunny Wailer—you know, of Bob Marley and the Wailers fame? So music is literally in her blood. She grew up listening to a healthy blend of reggae, rap, and R&B. At a young age Jack discovered his vaudevillian great grandfather's phonograph record collection and spent his childhood listening to cats like Bing Crosby, Al Jolson, and Rudy Vallee. As fate would have it, oddball ukulele legend Tiny Tim moved in next door to the Norton household and somehow became Jack's babysitter. Seriously. That rich musical stew forms the blend of Jack and Kitty's Emmy Award winning artistic approach. It's organic and acoustic. It's laid-back with positive vibes that appeal to all ages. The "all ages appeal" comes from the years Jack and Kitty spent as co-creators and co-stars of the hit preschool kids' television series "The Zinghoppers Show," which currently airs on over 150 PBS member stations nationwide and has been nominated for six Emmy Awards. An average of five million families see Jack and Kitty every day—time to come see them in person!
