�What fun! And what good listening for kids or anyone!� writes Sing Out! [1] 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 o�n children�s radio programs across the country, and feature a unique blend of folk, bluegrass, pop, and blues. Rambles [2] 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! [3] �an example of great children�s music.�  Wayne plays at libraries, schools, parks, birthday parties, fund-raisers, and special events throughout New England o�n vocals, banjo, guitar, harmonica and ukulele; including Boston Harborfest and the Lowell Summer Music Festival. Rambles writes that �Wayne Potash is a man who knows how to play to his audience. More importantly, he's not afraid to play with them.� Wayne�s Music Fun Band [4] includes award winning banjo player Paul Sedgwick (also o�n ukulele, didgiridoo, spoons and vocals); John Wiesner o�n bass guitar, harmonica, and vocals; and Bryn Carlson o�n drums, percussion and vocals. The group features kid and grown-up friendly music in folk, bluegrass, pop, blues, and world beat styles. Getting the audience in o�n the fun is what they do best. You can request songs from the new album live o�n WERS FM [5] on Saturday and Sunday late afternoons. He is o�n the Massachusetts Cultural Council's touring roster, and The Music Fun Band was featured again this year at Boston Harborfest's Children's Day. [6]
