Grammy Award winner Dan Zanes and Haitian-American jazz vocalist / Music Therapist Claudia Eliaza perform Dan’s most loved songs as well as the children’s music of folk icon Lead Belly which is featured on Dan’s latest CD, Lead Belly, Baby! The shows are highly interactive. The audience is always invited to sing and dance along in what might be called a casual, and subversively educational, party atmosphere. The music, based in a variety of folk traditions, is homespun, sophisticated, and artful. These shows appeal to audiences of all ages and The Duo is adept (and well loved) in school settings. Claudia Eliaza’s Music Therapy background has given the duo additional ways to find meaningful connections and grow a wider audience.
Best enjoyed by age 3 and up.
