New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Luck Ballantines PR) -
Aaron Nigel Smith assembled an all-star team to create his super cool children's CD "Everyone Loves to Dance," which launched digitally on January 15, 2010. Parents and kids alike are loving these hip original tunes as well as funky new arrangements of popular classics. Ziggy Marley,
Kevin Richardson from The Backstreet Boys, DJ DREZ, and local LA artists Rhythm Child rock with
Aaron on select songs. Grammy Award-winning mixer Myke
Aaron closes out the CD with three pumping dance mixes that keep the whole family jammin'.
Aaron actively promotes the positive effects of music and movement as an integral part of early education through his recordings as well as his enrichment program, FUNdamentals of Music and Movement. Launched in 2002 in Los Angeles, FUNdamentals is now the program of choice for over 100 schools nationwide! The uptempo, hook-filled tunes created for his curriculum get kids literally jumping off the floor while exploring key developmental concepts. His songs have been described as "some of the best targeted music for kids today," and PBS agrees. Aaron was recently invited to join the cast of the Emmy Award-winning PBS Kids show "Between the Lions."
His entertaining stage show has been featured around the country as part of the Ziggy Marley Family Time Tour, Between the Lions Live, NEA Read Across America Tour, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival and Abbott Kinney Festival, as well as NBC/Universal, Sony, Warner Brothers, Paramount and Fox Studios Family Concerts, and the Sierra Nevada World Music and Abbott Kinney Festivals. He received the NAPPA and iParenting awards for his first release, "Let's Pretend," in 2005. Most recently, Aaron collaborated with Ziggy Marley and the Palisades Children's Choir on the new hit Tuff Gong release of Bob Marley songs for kids, "B is for Bob."
