iTunes Review

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: It’s almost unfair the secret weapon April has in her back pocket. At the beginning of every episode of her April Eight Song & Stories Podcast, she breaks out her beautiful singing voice, and it’s impossible to not be enchanted as the rest of the episode plays…. April is a gifted writer, penning original folk and fairy tales for her show.”
