NEW Kids Video & Album, and Shows!

Hey everyone!  It’s Release Day for the full album LITTLE LEAF , celebrating my 30th Anniversary of recording and touring for children and families!!

The greatest honour of my professional life has been to entertain young audiences, while helping make connections to our natural world. Every bug, leaf, and rock can spark curiosity and ultimately help young people grow into responsible and caring citizens who will help protect our precious planet.

Today’s focus track, “Miracle in My Backyard”, is written by legendary Canadian entertainer Bing Jensen. A garden’s magic comes from a combination of natural beauty, the wonder of growth and transformation, and human creativity that fosters a sense of peace, purpose, and connection. The process of tending plants connects us to the earth’s cycles, and brings our community together in shared purpose and experience.

The other songs on LITTLE LEAF also speak to how all living beings around us are part of our community, including “Plant a Tree!”, “A Place in the Choir”, “Walk and Roll”, as well as the title track and “Cosmic Storm”, both of which feature the poetry of long-time collaborator, Ojibway Elder Duke Redbird.
This album features musicians from my bandmates in the 3x JUNO nominated, 6x CFMA winning global groove band Sultans of String, along with gorgeous backing vocals by singer-to-the-stars Rebecca Campbell, and a children’s chorus. Co-produced with Kevin Laliberte, and John Bailey.
