We just had the opportunity to listen to Mary Kaye’s new CD, Music Box. Mary Kaye is an award-winning children’s musician from Maine who combines a very sophisticated vocal style with lovely children’s themes and sounds.
Mary Kaye’s rich voice reminds me of Natalie Merchant or Sarah McLachlan, but her songs are written with children’s needs in mind. She utilizes a lot of repetition and silly sounds that keep young kids interested and entertained, like in the beep-boop song Robbie Robot, and she also plays with alliteration and funny word combinations that kids find irresistible, like in the funny rhyme song Tasting Tea.
Definitely keep your eyes out for this one—it’s a perfect mix of beautiful vocals and kid’s music.
Music Box is set for release on July 2, 2009. We’ll keep you posted on the CD’s availability and you can also visit Mary’s website: www.MaryKayeMusic.com.
