What's an onomatopoeia? You may not be familiar with the word, but you'd know it if you heard one. According to the dictionary, an onomatopoeia is, "the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named (e.g., cuckoo, sizzle, buzz)."

Let's put together a set of songs that sound like what they are. Give us your suggestions for our onomatoepoeia Coffee Break.

We're bringing our Coffee Break to you next Friday. The Morning Show picks one lucky work place each month to visit with live music and goodies. March 29th they'll bring musician John Mark Nelson and treats from Bryant Lake Bowl. Let them know why your work should win at CoffeeBreak@theCurrent.org
