Tunes n Tales by Tricia

Tricia's performances are lively, well paced, and totally interactive. She intentionally does not sing FOR her audiences, she sings WITH them. Her family audiences involve the parents as well as the children... her school presentations involve staff with the students. Her philosophy is "Join in... Life is a dance!"
She brings a bag of puppets as well as a box of musical instruments. When it's time for the literacy break, children are sound effects, characters in the story, and the forecasters of what may come next in the story.
Welcome .... sing and dance along!
All in a day's fun... even if it's a virtual performance.... expect to be involved and part of the action!

Tricia played guitar and ukulele within the context of her early childhood classroom for over 25 years. The idea of "taking her show on the road" just seemed like the natural thing to do! In pursuit of the life of a traveling artist, she now plays for libraries and festivals, entertains at family concerts, does on-site field trips, and shows up just about anywhere kids are growing! It is a wonderful life and it puts her 30 years of classroom experience to great use! She knows what to expect from both large and small audiences, brings her own sound enhancement , and can handle any and all challenges with the grace under pressure that you would expect from someone who is used to spending time with young people on a regular basis.

I usually require little more than a couple of small tables, a drink of water, and possibly a chair.... mostly if I am working with families of children under the age of 5.
I bring my own sound and it is mostly battery operated. If we are working out of doors and there is inclement weather, I might need a gazebo type covering for rain, etc.
