SUMMARY:Garden Concerts for Kids

With sophisticated instrumental funk and positive\, witty wordplay\, he has earned a loyal national following. His latest album\, Infinity Plus One\, took home music's biggest prize at the 59th Grammy Awards for Best Children's Album of the Year and in a heartfelt speech\, he dedicated the award to his daughter\, who's been rapping at his side since she was just five years old. Secret Agent 23 Skidoo's songs take kids into outer space with "Glimmer" about a moth who flies to the moon\, and "Tastes Like Space\," an exploration of the intergalactic destiny of Carl Sagan's famous Gold Record. His classic hip-hop sound is spiced with Motown\, reggae\, club thump\, blues and the occasional pirate shanty—the perfect summer sound for the whole family.\n\n\n\n\n \nDan Zanes with Claudia Eliaza\, Pauline Jean\, and Special Guests\nDate: Saturday and Sunday\, August 12 and 13\, 2017\nTime: 4:00–5:30 p.m.\nLocation: Central Garden\nAdmission: Free; no ticket required\nGrammy award-winner Dan Zanes occupies a unique place in American music where sea shanties\, folk music\, the spirit of early rock 'n' roll\, and soulful originals collide. For over 15 years he has performed everywhere from thrift shop basements to Carnegie Hall\, from Brooklyn to Bahrain and beyond\, meanwhile releasing over a dozen children's albums and several DVDs reconnecting people to forgotten songs. Referred to as "the family-music genre's most outspoken and eloquent advocate" by TIME magazine\, his widely acclaimed music has all been featured on Sesame Street\, Playhouse Disney\, Nickelodeon\, HBO Family\, and Sprout. Zanes recently finished Ha-Ha This Away\, an album released on the Smithsonian/Folkways label celebrating the children's music of his main inspiration\, Lead Belly (1889–1949)\, known as the King of the 12-String Guitar.

Now with her own multicultural band\, she shares songs from her celebrated album\, Mi Viaje: De Nuevo León to the New York Island (Parents' Choice Foundation Gold Award Winner) a collection of songs that reflect on her experiences growing up in Mexico\, moving to another country\, learning about other cultures\, and in the process\, feeling closer to her own heritage.
