Today for the Coffee Break we are looking for songs that feature an instrument that is played with a mallet. We're thinking about the xylophone, vibraphone, marimba, balafon, or even the semantron.

What songs that feature an instrument that is played with a mallet should we play for the 9:30 Coffee Break?

Need a Coffee Break for real? Jill and Steve are gearing up for their December trip to your workplace. This month Thao Nguyen will join the Coffee Break prior to her Wits show that night at The Fitzgerald Theater and Gigi's Cafe will be providing the treats.
