Derico Watson is the drummer responsible for playing on all the acoustic samples, executing 38 individual perfect-tuned drums. Grammy-winning producer Kenny Barto was trusted to make each sample sound the best possible, with both vintage and modern gear and three different recording rooms at his disposal.


TEN LITTLE PIGGIESThis snappy little tune started out life as a love song for my newborn son about twenty years ago. I had him on a little blanket in he living room and as I stared at that glorious little kid I sang "sunshine pig making his way through the universe!". The song actually ended up in an ad for the BMW Mini back in the day. Eventually after picking it apart for years to make something else out of it I landed on the rich tradition of those beloved ten little pigs and the new Caspar version was born.WHERE OH WHERE?I decided that I wanted to rewrite this classic to include more than just a dog. So I wrote new lyrics about loosing an entire menagerie of animals and all the speculating that goes along with lost pets.LOVE YOU MOREThis was a straightforward love song for my daughter when she was tiny. I use to wake up with her every morning and walk all over the place with her strapped to me and this was a song that I sang while we walked. I forgot about it and just stumbled onto it while listening to old fragments one day. It was super fun to record and I hope you have fun listening to it.FREE COUCHWow wow wow. For years and years and years I have been noticing abandoned couches by the side of the road and every time I did I would have a little music moment go off in my head that sang "FREE COUCH" instead of "FREAK OUT" but with no idea how to form that little habit into a song I sat on the fragment for years. Then I cracked it open and worked it out so that a young tick that moved to the city is calling his parents and telling them not to freak out because he is safe and sound and living ins a FREE COUCH! Yay. Puzzle solved and the song came out super duper. Put on your dancing shoes and turn it UP.THIS IS THE WAY THE WOODS WAKE UPOriginally I had this song happening in a zoo but then I realized that zoos could be a bit controversial so I moved it to the woods. I hope this song will help you in the morning with your routine, as you get ready to head out the door. I like to imagine this one being performed in a nightclub in 1960's New York by a dashing flamingo.PUSHY THE TUGThis is another song where the idea existed for years before I figured out how to make it work as a song. Every time Kate and I would see a tug boat out on the water we would pretend it was named "Pushy" and it had a bit of an attitude of superiority. When it came time to make the song I figured I had to do more than just describe her so I made up a story about another tug named "Huggy" coming along and falling in love with her even though she can be pretty prickly. It's a tugboat love story.I FEEL BETTEROne day I went into a music store with a wee tape recorder to sample little drum sounds and noises to use for song inspiration (the drum track on FREE COUCH is from one such excursion!) and I ended up improvising a little tune on a keyboard about feeling better. Many many years later after listening to the tape a few times this little jam stuck out as something to build on but it took many many more years before I stumbled on to the right way to sing about this idea of time healing all wounds. Some things are worth the wait.CUT THAT COCONUT DOWNOne day this song just sprang out of my mind fully formed. I don't know where it cane from but I love it. Just a bunch of thirsty animals that need to get their paws and claws on some thirst quenching coconut juice. None of them can get it together to get the coconuts out of that silly tree. I get thirsty just listening to this one.MY PANTS ARE ON VACATIONOne day my wife Kate was getting ready to go out and could not find the pair of pants that she wanted to wear. Out of frustration she shouted "MY PANTS ARE ON VACATION!". Of course, as is often the case with things Kate says, I immediately heard a song in her silly proclamation and rushed out to the studio to write and record it on the spot.UNDERGROUNDThis ditty started out as a song I wrote for someone as an auction item for a fundraiser. I can't remember what the original lyrics were but I changed it many years ago (another song I have had for a long time!) to be about the secret life of all the underground creatures. I love dirt. My favorite part is the concert hall made of "rocks and roots". I can really see it.BLACKBERRY PIEWhen my son was a wee lad he wrote the weirdest song called "CHIPMUNK FALLING FROM THE SKY". It had a really odd time signature and the "oo wee oo oo oo oo wee" part that I found myself humming to myself for years afterwards. Finally I changed his original lyrics about a chipmunk hitting the ground at terrible velocities to be about a crow that tries to steal a delicious piece of pie and a classic was born!NO MORE JUMPINGMy daughter and I were driving home from town one day when the song "Ghost Town" by The Specials and as I sang along my mind wandered to the old traditional song about jumping on the bed. I decided to expand it (as I do!) and include a bunch of animals instead of just the traditional monkeys in the original. I used a tone for the music from The Specials song as a tribute tot he moment of inspiration.FROGGIE WENT A COURTIN'Another old traditional song that I suddenly realized I had not thought about adapting. I changed the lyrics a bit and took the weapons out of Froggies hands in the first verse (!) and replaced them with a ring and a bouquet, which is more appropriate for a proposal! I had fun messing with these lyrics for sure. What a fun party. I wish I had been invited to that wedding.PUT YOUR BABY IN THE AIRI slowed this one down so you can really do the movement with your baby and have time to enjoy it and be in the moment. Of course I included some fresh movements so you can shake things up with your kid. It's just a simple moment to have interacting with your baby.BEDTIME BLUESWho likes to go to bed? NOBODY! Well, nobody under 6 years old I guess. I wanted to write a sort of classic blues structured song and chose the bedtime these because a lot of kids feel pretty strong emotions around that age old never ending chore of winding down for sleep. I hope that maybe this song helps parents with the bedtime routine.WHAT DO YOU FIND?I love to wonder what animals think and the hardest animals to figure out to me are invertebrates. What are those little doo-dads thinking about? In the end I just don't know and that's OK. Sometimes nature is a mystery!MYSTERIOUS THINGSThe song "The Ants Came Marching" in has always been a favorite of mine. I love spooky grooves but I always wondered why the theme of ants marching was wrapped up in such a spooky tune. So I decided to make the lyrics spooky too so the music and the lyrics would go in the same direction. My good buddy Fysah Sands helped out with some great soul vocals to give it an extra spooky feeling. Put this on when you are getting ready to go out to trick or treat next Halloween!THE SOFTEST GUITAR ON THE MOONThis came about from an exercise where I put random words together and this title came out of it and I challenged myself to write a song using those words. This is another song that has been looking for a home on an album for a long long time and it has finally found its place. I feel like this song could be in a musical about a guitar that was left on the moon.WANDERIN' BABYWhen my wife and I moved into our new house way back in 2008 we rented a big moving truck. As I pulled out of the parking lot of the rental place I put on the turn signal and it made this little two note rhythm that immediately inspired a melody form me and as we moved all day I sang with the turn signal Eventually after toying with lyrical ideas I saw a stand up comic talking about how toddlers are always excited to run away from their parents but don't have any idea what would happen if they got away and the lyrical idea for the tune was born.COUNTING SHEEPWhen I was a kid I played a composition on the piano called minuet in G by Christian Petzold (it was mistakenly credited to Bach most of the time). I have forgotten most all of the songs I learned as a kid during my 10 years taking piano lessons but this one stuck with me. I added a second part that I wrote myself and a bunch of imagery of relaxing sheep. Usually you count sheep to go to sleep so counting sheep that are relaxing a bunch of different ways should be the MOST relaxing thing to help you sleep. Goodnight!

DECK THE HALLSThis is just a great classic holiday tune! The melody is Welsh and dates back to the sixteenth century and belongs to a winter carol, "Nos Galan", while the English lyrics date to 1862. As with a bunch of these old classics I have tweaked the lyrics to make them my own and give them an updates feel. The solo section in this one is a bit of a nod to Vince Guaraldi who made the classic Charlie Brown Christmas TV special music that I grew up with. JOY TO THE WORLDThe words are by English hymn writer Isaac Watts and is based on the second half of Psalm 98 in the Bible. The song was first published in 1719 in a collection of Watt's writings. As with all of the traditional songs on this album that refer directly to Christ and God I have decided to secularize the lyrics to reflect a more family oriented perspective on the holiday season. I loved making the new middle part for this one. Adding new bits to old songs is on old my favorite things about songwriting. CANDLE IN THE SNOWThere is based on a great old hillbilly bluegrass tune called "I Wish I Was A Mole In The Ground". I have always loved that tune but wanted to find a new way to do it so I finally settled on adapting it for this album to be about different light sources in the wintertime. Hope you dig it. JINGLE BELLSThis one was extremely fun to record and sing. I decided to go for a chugging feel rather than an oompah vibe. This song was written by James Lord Peirpont and published under the title "One Horse Open Sleigh" in the autumn of 1857. Even though it is now associated with the Christmas it was actually originally written for the Thanksgiving holiday! I updated the lyrics to be a little less old fashioned in the wording and to flow a bit better for my style. WINTER PARTYI had a song for years called Cloudy Cloud, which mutated into a song called Snowy Snow and it never really felt finished. I scrapped all the lyrics once I decided to call the album Winter Party I realized I could turn this unfinished song into the title track. So I wrote new verses about all the animals gathering for a party in the winter. Feel free to do a tiny little miniscule wee baby funky dance to this groovy tune! WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMASThis one is the most straightforward version of an original Christmas carol. I just turned up the energy a bit and kept the lyrics as they were. It felt right in this case. All I wanted to do was to with you a merry Christmas. Pretty straight forward. YAY! CANDY CANEI remember being a little kid and waiting patiently until Christmas day when I was finally allowed to eat the candy canes off the tree. It seemed to take forever and ever. Originally this song was just about how awesome candy is but that seemed a little irresponsible since I tend to stay away from sugar to stay healthy. So I sat on it for a few years until this album came along and I gave the candy a new story. I love this high energy little ditty AND I love candy canes in moderation! PUMPKIN IN THE PINESI wanted to do a cover of Good King Wenceslas but I found myself unable to update the lyrics in a way that felt right. One day during the recording of the album I had a funny vision of a pumpkin that does not rot after Halloween but instead floats around in the woods until Christmas eve and can't rest until it is let in to someone's house and shown some Christmas cheer. The song just poured out of me and came together in a flash! I think I invented the word "decomposted" for this song as well. FROZEN PENGUINI took the tune from the French song Alouette and adapted it to be about a little penguin that is cold. Is that possible? Why not! It was fun to track this and make my voice sound different for the different parts. An easy song to join in with and sing along so feel free! O CHRISTMAS TREEThe modern lyrics were written in 1824 by the Leipzig organist, teacher and composer Ernst Anschutz. The original lyrics do not actually refer to Christmas at all or describe a decorated Christmas tree. Instead, they refer to the fir tree's evergreen qualities as a symbol of consistency and faithfulness. I decided to have this one change keys as it goes on so that is gets more and more uplifting. I really love this song. So tender and sweet. THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMASThe song was published in England in 1780 without music as a chant or rhyme, is thought to be originally French and the melody is by English composer Frederic Austin. As with most old songs I record I wanted to make the lyrics new and more "Babypants-ish" so I changed it all to be about animals of course. So no more partridge in that pear tree. Now it's a porcupine. You are WECOME! SILENT NIGHTThe song was first performed on Christmas Eve in 1818 at St Nicholas parish church in Oberndorf, Austria. A young priest, Father Joseph Mohr, had come to Oberndorf the year before. He had already written the lyrics of the song "Stille Nacht" in 1816. The melody was composed by Franz Xaver Gruber in the nearby village of Arnsdorf. Before Christmas Eve, Mohr brought the words to Gruber and asked him to compose a melody and guitar accompaniment for the church service. Both performed the carol during the mass on the night of December 24. All I did was, again, remove the religious references and make the lyrics more broad based and add a bit of a country feel and a brand new middle part! So it is a bit of a three way collaboration between Mohr, Gruber and Babypants! DAYS GONE BY (AUD LANG SYNE)I have always loved this song. It is a Scots poem written by Robert Burns in 1788 and was set to the tune of a traditional folk song of the time. Back in the old days I used to go to The Dog House before it was closed down and sing this classic at midnight on New Years Eve with all the regulars. Those were some of the best New Years Eves of my life. I decided to translate the old Scottish saying into English so that kids could understand the sentiment behind the lyrics. I ended up writing a bunch of new lyrics that refer to the original vibe of the song, which is nostalgic and emotional. ALPHABET CHRISTMAS LULLABYThis one started out as a song for Mindy Thomas at Kids Place Live. I made a little Christmas greeting song for her show a couple of years ago. One day I heard it as I was strolling through my unreleased songs and expanded it to be this little album closing mellow tune. My favorite line is "X is for X-mass a handy abbreviation". I was pretty proud of that one! Hope you enjoy this album closing mellow tune. 2ff7e9595c
