Do you have a kid who knows where every escalator is when you stop at a local store or mall? I’m guaranteed a ride or two (or three) on the escalator if we go to our local 2-story book shop.
There was wide-eyed amazement when we first listened to the title track from David Tobocman‘s new release, Escalator. Besides for being wonderfully upbeat, this fun song was all about the joy to be found in riding an escalator.
The entire album is full of fun songs about the joys of growing up. Another favorite of ours to rock out to while driving around in the ‘mom wagon’ is Custom Family Spaceship, which is about taking family adventures and the places you can go with imagination.
Always witty and engaging, David’s playful songs for children show the craft that he’s developed as a career songwriter and composer. When not recording and performing for kids, David writes scores for indie films and TV shows. After years working behind the scenes, the birth of two daughters inspired his first album for children. The characters that populate David’s songs are intelligent kids who are not afraid to be different. “Kids are smart,” says the songwriter. “I just try to meet them at their level.”
If your kids enjoy using their imaginations and some fun upbeat songs, Escalator is a great album to check out!
David Tobocman is also sharing this great Halloween themed single, “Spooky Stuff” as a free download this month! Download here. He wrote the song with his young daughter who also performs with him on the single. Pretty cool, huh?!?
