Details:
Children today groove to the beat of rap, rock, country, hip-hop and classic 80's pop. And that is exactly what educational performer/songwriter Mr. Billy CD offers on his latest AWARD WINNING CD "Playground". The songs are upbeat, educational and fun. Elementary and secondary school students co-wrote nine out of the twelve songs on this collection during six-trait songwriting residencies between November 2003 and March 2004.

Lyrics to all songs are available at www.misterbilly.com

The songs are diverse and very catchy. Many encourage movements and group participation, like the B-52's inspired "Ants in Your Pants Dance" and the group chant "The Dog Ate My Homework". A classic song gets a fresh coat of paint in "Old MacDonald Had a Rock and Roll Band". One of the great moments on this CD was written by kindergarteners titled "Don't Call Me a Bird" a song inspired by the book "Stella Luna" which compares bats and birds and shows off just how creative and intelligent small children can be. There are songs about outer space, reading, safety and "The Magic of our Future"(Children, of course). And in a surprise addition to his usual fare of contemporary beats and styles, you will find a polka called "Super Monkey" (just for fun!).

As a special bonus, Mr. Billy has included the song "Let's Go Writing". Also known as the "Six-Trait Song" on this CD. He has been performing it for over two years and it has never been made publicly available until now.

Mr. Billy is a full time academic entertainer from De Pere, Wisconsin, a two time Children's Music Web Award winner, and was recently voted "Northeastern Wisconsin's Family Favorite Children's Entertainer".

Mr. Billy has two more fun-filled CD's available, they are "Hello, My Name is Mr. Billy" (his first) and the AWARD WINNING winter/holiday release, "Fruitcake".
