Kids' music legend Laurie Berkner, crowned "the queen of kids' music" by People magazine, celebrates her Silver Jubilee in 2022. On May 25 of this year, Laurie marks the 25th anniversary of the release of her iconic first album, Whaddaya Think of That? Laurie Berkner's music has crossed over to the adult world, too. Her song, "Pajama Time," was prominently featured in this season's South Park opening episode. Laurie's "Clean It Up" song was included in an episode of Sex and the City. For Weeds, Laurie was among the guest artists to sing the show's theme song, "Little Boxes." Laurie Berkner has released 14 bestselling, award-winning albums. Her 15th album – her second Christmas album – is due out later this year. With more than 230 million views on her YouTube channel, an average of more than 22 million monthly streams, and millions of CDs and DVDs sold, Laurie's songs are beloved by families worldwide, including household staples like "We Are the Dinosaurs," "Victor Vito," "Waiting for the Elevator," "The Goldfish (Let's Go Swimming)," and "Moon Moon Moon." What sets Laurie apart? She displays an instinctive understanding of children's natural rhythms and energy, which keeps kids enraptured and brings parents and caregivers happily along for the ride. Laurie finds inspiration in her audience. "I want to create songs that matter for children," she says. "I was singing once and saw a four-year-old girl shut her eyes and start swaying to the music. I thought, 'That's the reason I got into music.' It keeps me wanting to do more." # # # |
