With a career that spans more than two decades, garnering 27 national awards for seven children’s albums, singer/songwriter Dana of Dana's Music Playground has become a beloved presence on the kids’ music scene. Dana's upbeat new single, “Bring On Summer,” was just released, with an accompanying music video.

After an especially rainy, windy winter and spring in her home state of Washington, Dana found herself longing for the warmth and sunshine of summer. While out running in her raincoat on yet another blustery April day, she was inspired to write a song celebrating the promise of sunny, fun-filled days ahead. Dana and her crew of stellar musician friends in Nashville recorded the song remotely to get the tune ready to release just in time for summer. The next step was to shoot a "Bring On Summer" music video with a terrific crew of sweet kids.
“It was such a joy shooting the video for "Bring On Summer," says Dana. "We jumped, danced, and celebrated the start of summer in beautiful Bellingham, Washington in a park overlooking the bay. Acting out all of the fun summer activities mentioned in the song was a blast, and of course, the kids' favorites were eating plenty of watermelon and ice cream! The wind blew our giant beach balls into the water twice, but lifted our extra long kite into the air with ease! So much fun!”
“Bring On Summer” is now available on all major platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Bandcamp.
