Marsha Goodman-Wood gets kids singing and dancing, setting little toes to tapping with original melodies that mix generous doses of science and positive social messages into songs that are just plain fun. Her quirky, smart compositions take on topics from astronomy (answering the age-old question "Why Can't You Dance on Jupiter?") to nonconformity ("Sheep Don't Wear Shoes") to biology ("The Penguin Song"). Who knew learning could be so catchy? Her tunes and stories are sure to please children and even that most cynical audience of all: grownups. Drawing on her diverse musical background in indie rock, jazz, classical, and theater, Marsha takes inspiration for her lyrics straight from the creative kids she's raising and teaching. A mother of three, she brings to her performances a parent's eye for connecting with audiences, along with a music teacher's sensibility for what works to move kids of all ages.
Marsha's debut album "Gravity Vacation" is available now online. She's thrilled to launch the CD at this special Jammin' Java release party.
