About Vanessa Trien:

Have you ever made animal sounds with your kids, imagined climbing into a bubble, hated to have your playdates come to an end? Vanessa Trien and the Jumping Monkeys have, and their genuine appreciation of the quirkiness of everyday routines comes through loud and clear. These talented musicians
find something to celebrate in their original songs—whether it’s anthropomorphizing a yo-yo or interpreting a baby’s language (Mama Dada Blues). Vanessa is a talented and warm observer of how her children
play, respond and communicate. The Jumping Monkeys (Adam, Paul, Julie and Dave) are savvy performers who understand how to deliver these finely tuned lyrical fun loving messages.

Sing, Play, Grow! (www.singplaygrow.com) is what Philip is all about. Philip Alexander is a professional children’s musician and storyteller, based in the Boston area. Philip performs his original music at shows all over New England: school programs, birthday parties, and family concerts at public libraries and festivals.
