Live music for babies and toddlers

Is beautiful folk your cup of tea?


Next in my series of recommendations, it’s …… drumroll……

Beautiful US folk for childrenElizabeth Mitchell, You are my little bird. When it comes to children’s folk, this woman is the real deal and her music is a huge influence on me. With a soft, gentle voice she sings traditional US folk songs, interspersed with song from Japan, Indonesia and other cultures. She’s collaborated with Lisa Loeb and Dan Zanes, but is most often accompanied by her daughter and husband who play on many of her albums. Watch out if you are sleepy because her mellifuous voice could lull most into sweet dreams.

What have you been listening to in November? Let me know!
