We’re Cathy & Marcy. We’ve been making music together for kids and families for over 20 years! We perform all over the world to audiences big and small. Our favorite part of performing is when everyone joins in. In fact, at our shows, we have the best seats in the house - watching and hearing YOU sing together, play your air guitars, smile, giggle and join in the fun. We love music that’s highly participatory and we indulge in silly songs, story songs, sing-a-longs and songs with American Sign Language! This is music your family can grow up with-not music they’ll grow out of!
We’ve got songs and CD’s for little ones and also for older kids, though mostly everyone listens together. Our eclectic repertoire includes folk to country to old-time stringband to jazz and swing music and the recordings include very cool musicians and bands. Our favorite part of performing is interacting with kids and adults in our audience. Even if you never heard our songs before, it’ll be easy to sing along from the first song. Did you ever Scat Sing?, yodel like a cowgirl or cowboy?, have fun with tongue twisters?, hula hoop to Big Band Swing? All this and more can be found in our live shows and on our recordings. We play the banjo, guitar, mandolin, steel drum, hand drums, pennywhistle, hammered dulcimer, washboard-well, not all at once and not all at every show. But there’s always lots of variety in musical instruments and styles.
We have performed in concert halls, schools, festivals and clubs throughout the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and Israel. In fact, we’ve done over 7,000 concerts through the years. Click here to find out where we’re playing next.
