His compositions and performances have been heard on Nickelodeon, PBS, and, well… the Weather Channel. Not only are Bobby Darling and Dr. Devine two incredibly talented musicians their uncanny wit and humor will have you in stitches. Enjoy some of their greatest hits such as: Black Magic Marker, Barney Must Die, Andy Was The Sheriff, The Girl With Emphysema, I Think Alone, We Didn’t Start The Diet, The Longest Line, Gumby, Route 2, Bohemian Rhapsody Polka, The Brady Bill, Mama Don’t Let Your Babies…,Kennedy Girl, Gilligan’s Island Blues, The Devil Went Up To Killington, In The Summertime…and more.
