Music Fun!
About Wayne
|
"What fun! And what good listening for kids or anyone!” writes Sing Out! Magazine, referring to Singer/Songwriter Wayne Potash as a “master of kids’ music."
 
Winner of the coveted 2007 Parents Choice Music Award, his recordings are featured on children’s radio programs across the country, and feature a unique blend of folk, rock, pop, bluegrass, and blues. Rambles Magazine writes that Wayne sings "the most memorable melodies in American music with bright, understated guitar playing and a friendly vocal delivery that positively begs the audience to sing along.” Northeast Performer Magazine calls his latest CD Don’t Forget the Donut! “an example of great children’s music." Wayne plays at libraries, schools, parks, birthday parties, fund-raisers, and special events throughout New England on vocals, banjo, guitar, harmonica and ukulele; including Boston Harborfest and the Lowell Summer Music Festival. Wayne’s Music Fun Band includes award winning banjo player Paul Sedgwick (also on ukulele, didgiridoo, spoons and vocals); John Wiesner on bass guitar, harmonica, and vocals; and Bryn Carlson on drums, percussion and vocals. The group features kid and grown-up friendly music, and he is on the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s touring roster.
Wayne sings "Home On the Range" for the world's largest bison in North Dakota on his cross-country family vacation this summer.

Once again you did an outstanding job with our large group of preschoolers and their parents. I lost count at 150 ( It was our largest gathering of the summer) and that's without advertising in the paper! You can see how you've gained a reputation in Duxbury and have a loyal following.
Everyone loved the new songs, but it was also nice that you included some old favorites like Rattlin' Bog which always gets people singing. The brisk sales of your tapes and CDs after the concert showed how much the parents enjoyed your music.
Thanks for your visit, we'll look forward to seeing you again next summer!
-- Nancy Denman, Head of Children's Services, Duxbury Free Library
