Wild Duck Dancing at Guilford Free Library, Summer Reading show, Creatures of Nature and Magic!
Welcome to my Family Music page! I play my fun and interactive originals with a few classic and contemporary favorites in my live show. Please go to the Family Show Audio Tracks page to hear songs I play in the Stupendously Wonderful Music Show and Creatures of Nature and Magic Show, which are geared for families with pre-school to elementary school age children (although I have also seen middle school age kids rock out during shows!). I perform in libraries, schools, pre-schools, town concert series, summer fairs, festivals, fundraisers, and at birthday parties. I am available to play in any setting or venue which provides entertainment for children and families. I sing, play guitar and ukulele with the goal of maximum audience participation. There are always some educational components that I sneak into each show!
Durham Fair Kids Place! See you in September!
Creatures of Nature and Magic!!
A new and fully interactive music show which interweaves songs about mythical creatures like sprites and gnomes with songs about our animal kingdom friends. Let's face it- nature can be as mysterious as mythical creatures like fairies and trolls!! Come be a part of the show!
Librarians: The focus is on learning, reading and singing about nature in all her glory! There is a reading list that goes with the show.
Please see my page on the Connecticut Library Consortium website!
Southington Family Entertainment Series- beautiful day, beautiful crowd!

“Songs range from instructive to just plain Fun; from ladybugs to gnomes, you’ll learn something while playing and singing along!” From a parent who attended a performance of the "Creatures of Nature and Magic" Show
As a children’s entertainer, I continue to see what music, particularly live music, gives to children (and their parents as well!). Participating in musical activities helps children express themselves, build confidence, and connect with others for an enhanced sense of community. I recall one performance at a library where I noticed two little boys (brothers) seated quietly at the beginning of the show. After a song or two their feet were moving to the music; next, they were clapping along, and then singing. By the end of the show, both were out of their seats dancing, singing, and fully participating in the movements of the song. It was a joyful process to witness, one that has stayed with me and reinforced my passion for engaging people, young and old, in music.
Music brings out our humanity and touches that place in us which is universal. It helps us learn more about who we are and what we feel and allows us to share that with others. To quote Victor Hugo: “Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent”.
