Sing Thing

Sandi Morey and Sing Thing are a Bay Area treasure. Imagine sitting around a living room with a bunch of families, kids are cozy in their pajamas, there’s a fire in the fireplace, and everyone is singing together in a friendly, casual environment. Sandi teaches the songs: folk songs, traditional music, rounds, chants, sea shanties, Irish ballads, and seasonal songs from around the world. There’s no music to read, no papers to keep track of. .. you just learn the songs as you go. If you already love to sing, or if you’d like to start a tradition of singing with your family, I urge you to give Sing Thing a try. Where else can our children learn all the old songs? The music from Sing Thing gives me and my children a common musical language and a set of songs that we can sing together at home or when we are hiking or camping or driving in the car. They’ve learned about unions and explorers and the civil rights movement and other cultures through the music as well. Sandi has been singing with families for 40 years, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Sing Thing is great for families that like to sing traditional music from many cultures. Sandi Morey is a music educator and loves to share and teach the history and context in addition to the songs. Very fun for anyone that wants to feel energized on a weeknight.
