What  a blast Summer 2013 has been.....shows in NYC with CityParks SummerStage Kids, another great year singing in Madison Square Park in NYC.....a few wonderful shows with my hubby Bakithi Kumalo @ Godfrey Daniels in Bethlehem, PA and Stephen TalkHouse in the Hamptons!  Then there was the realease of a most auspicious children's CD Call Absolutely Postively Getting Along - an awesome compilation CD with folks like me, Pete Seeger, Julian Lennon, Melba Moore, Brady Rymer.....endless list of the top family…

NO LONGER A SECRET!!!  Congratulations to our team! Our compilation CD entitled "Absolutely Positively Getting Along" that we all worked so hard to craft and record with new material for children has been released today to the general public. Here's the link for your family: www.absolutelypositivelygettingalong.com  It is truly an honor to be included by Big Brothers and Big Sisters to write and perform a song on an album for children (pro bono) w/a team of producers (Jim Cravero, Gloria Domina & Pat…

Finally the spring has sprung, and I'm gearing up for marketing & showcasing this year.  I found myself working soooooo much, that I didn't really have time for marketing and schmoozing for new jobs!  So, back on the saddle I go!  I love performing as much as I love building relationships with presenters.  It's one the the many facets of my work that makes me work such a joy!  God wants us to be us service - so, here I am!  Wherever I can go with my music and talents - I want to go there;  it's my purpose…

I've had a great weekend at KindieFest.  I'm so honored to have been invited to speak and perform at the conference!  How Cool!  Looking forward to a bundh of other gigs too!

Getting Ready!!!!

Wow.....I'm finally stiing still, blogging, and stressing about all the emails and phone calls I need to return!  Spent last week teaching in Middletown, NY @ Maple Hill ES...to a group of students I've had the honor to perform to and work with as a teaching artist for over 5 years!  To see some of them as tall 5th graders and to meet the youngest 2nd graders of the school (who remember me from when they were in KindyGarten) quite humbling. 

I love my work.

I am so grateful for these lovely sets of skills…

I'm really looking forward to my next venue, Allentown Symphony Hall a.k.a Miller Hall.....in nearby Allentown.  Here's some info about the show:

Come hear me sing with my talented friends, make funny jokes to make you laugh, and witness the surprise guests hidden within the show....you won't believe what we're about to do on Friday March 22, 2013!!!!

Having an amazing time at IPAY this year....so many friends at this conference - it's wonderful to see everybody AND make new friends from Australia and the Netherlands....quick rest for a few days then off to APAP.  I'm working with Monique Martin (City Parks Foundation) as she presents a panel of children music.  On the weekend I'm attending my friend Steve MacIntosh's 1st Annual Children's Artist showcase on Saturday the 12th  and Sunday the 13th!

Wooo Hoo to family music!  Children have the power to heal…

How many times did they predict the end of the world last year?!?!?  A few, I think!  And yet, with God's grace - we made it!

I'm glad about that .... I have a lot plans.  My first plan is to get over the fact that my eldest daughter is turning 17 this month.  There!  I said it!  'Nuff said on this topic.

I've got some new show ideas that I've been slowly workshopping in the comfort of my living room with my favoirite piano.  As much as I love performing for kids - it's a blast to perform fo folks my age.  I…
