Music Minute: New Singles from Sharon & Bram

Legendary children's musicians Sharon & Bram have launched a grand celebration of their 40-year performing career with the release of a series of new singles, all written by Sharon Hampson's late husband Joe Hampson, who achieved fame as a member of the Canadian folk group The Travellers.  

The new singles are the first recordings Sharon & Bram have made without the late Lois Lilienstein, who was, for 20 years, their partner in the trio Sharon, Lois & Bram.

Before there was Dora, Nickelodeon introduced Sharon, Lois & Bram and their Elephant Show to American TV viewers, and, later on, even more families became fans by watching them on Skinnamarink TV on TLC. Decade after decade of enthusiastic live audiences and treasured recordings attest to the depth of love and joy generated by the simple power of the group's music.
