Banana Slug String Band Jams at Birch Aquarium

The children's band Banana Slug String Band combines catchy tunes with education and fun.

Birch Aquarium was packed Thursday night with guppies and groupies. Children's band Banana Slug String Band rocked Birch Aquarium's Tide Pool Plaza over looking the ocean.

With songs like Dirt Made My Lunch, Standing On My Head and Kingdom of the Crab, it's easy to see why children love the Banana Slug String Band.

The Slugs use vocals, guitars, mandolin, bass, harmonica, banjo and percussion to engage children to think green. They also use puppetry and audience participation to engage children.

The Slugs songs range from rock to reggae and rap. The band is "Airy" Larry Graff, Doug "Dirt" Greenfield, "Solar" Steve Van Zandt and "Marine" Mark Nolan.

Check out a few videos of the band's hits above.
