So, when I went to Stinkfest now known as Kindiefest back in May, the discussion was about how kids music was now being called family music. What I gathered from the discussion is that family music is music that appeals to all members in the family and not just the kids. Being a kids musician, honestly, I didn't totally jump on board that one. After Monday night, I might be persuaded now. Some of the parents and kids from my daughter's school gathered at Millenium Park's Pritzker Pavilion for one of their free concerts - The Feelies. If you're in, uh ahem . . my age bracket, you might remember the band. I guess for me this video of my daughter and some of her friends dancing says it all.
I started liking kids music when my daughter was born. I play kids music in Chicago under the name "Little Miss Ann". I work at the Old Town School of Folk Music. I'm also a literacy consultant in the Chicago Public Schools. My husband plays drums with me and my daughter is in 2nd grade.
If you are interested in submitting music to me, please e-mail me at ann@littlemissann.com.
