Ballard ‘Kindie Band’ up for Grammy nod

One of Seattle’s popular “Kindie Bands” (a kiddie indie band that parents like, too) is dreaming of the 2012 Grammy Awards.

The Ballard group, “The Not-Its,” has just learned that their most recent album “Tag, You’re It!” is up for a Grammy nomination. After submitting the album, the group learned last week that they are one of 117 children’s albums to be chosen for possible nomination. Just getting on this list has them thinking of the future. We were “Super excited as we started imagining what a Grammy nomination could do for us, especially being an independent artist,” they said.

This is the first time they’ve been selected for the final nomination list. The nominations come out later this year.
