Finding Raffi
5.0/5
Critic Rating
Raffi Cavoukian is a magical musician. His songs, like “Baby Beluga” and “Down by the Bay,” have wordplay and rhyme schemes that are as crowd-pleasing as they come — sweet, silly sing-alongs for kids and adults alike. But his work is anything but simple. Much like the folk singers who inspired him, a radical philosophy underscores all that he does. In "Finding Raffi,” comedian, writer, and podcaster Chris Garcia takes us on a journey through a 10-part series tracing Raffi’s life from aspiring folk singer to international kids’ superstar to outspoken activist for climate action and a child-centric world. Produced in partnership with Rococo Punch. (Note: This podcast is on the same feed as Finding Fred)

"Just as Raffi is more than a children’s songwriter, Chris knows how to put together a story, and there are some layers to this podcasting onion. Finding Raffi perfectly captures the feeling of being accepted and the desire to ‘be like Raffi’ once you understand the spell he is casting."
