Jim Cosgrove “Mr Stinky Feet” Feature
Jim Cosgrove, the children’s entertainer known as Mr Stinky Feet and a regular performer at the various Irish festivals in Kansas City, was featured over the weekend in KC online Present Magazine in an indepth article and podcast.
Last seen playing before a watching Irish crowd at Governor Stumpy’s Celtic Block Party, Cosgrove has been performing for children since 1997 at a St Patrick’s Day-themed event.
Mr. Stinky Feet has recorded six CDs and in February 2007, he released a new DVD, Mr. Stinky Feet’s Road Trip Live. The 33-minute DVD features songs from earlier albums Road Trip, Mr. Stinky Feet, and Pick Me! Pick Me! and includes the bonus music video Slug Bug. The steady success of the albums, such as the best-selling Mr. Stinky Feet, attracted the interest of Warner Brothers Music. In October 2005, Cosgrove completed a distribution agreement with Warner Brothers that doesn’t interfere with the fun. “Creatively, we can do what we want,” he says.
