Just a quick note from Lori Nancy and me.  We wanted to thank you for your support over the past year.  We know it's been tough for everybody, and it means a great to deal to us that you chose to spend some of your time with us, watching our shows during the first months of the lockdown, and listening, watching and actually helping us write some of the songs we made this year.

We very much hope that we'll have the chance to meet in person at a live show in 2021.

In the mean time, Happy New Year.

And please remember these 3 things:

1.  Wear A Mask

2. Wash Your Hands

3.  Don't Pick Your Nose and Eat It

Last Sunday, Lori Nancy and I live-streamed our Homemade Holiday Show.  We had a really lovely time.  Thanks to everybody who tuned in.  We got to read the story "Night Walk" by Sara O'Leary and Ellie Arscott.  We played our holiday single and some other favourite tunes.   Lori Nancy made a wonderful craft.  We released a new single and a video to go with it.  To top it all off, we are opening for Santa next week in a virtual show for Scadding Court EarlyON.  So if you've got a list, send it to us and we can have a word with Santa on your behalf.

Head over to the music page to stream or down load the new songs, and I've just updated the page so that my two solo albums, made in olden times, are up there too.

Over on the video page you'll find the video for our holiday single "First Snowfall" and the videos we made over the lock down, for "Handwashing Song" and "Wear A Mask Song"  

Happy Holidays.  All the best 

Starting this Monday, March 23rd, at 10 am Eastern Daylight Time.  Lori Nancy and I are going to be live streaming from the Sing Along Tim Facebook Page.  We'll do some songs, Get everyone moving. We'll even do an arts and crafts activity related to one of the songs.  Something you can make out of stuff you've already got in your house. Please join us.

We are very happy to be returning to Sick Kids Hospital tomorrow morning, for a performance in their Library.  Looking forward to sharing our music and making some new friends. 

Also we got an honourable mention in the International Song Writing Competition.

Sometime last year I entered our song "Booger Song" in the International Songwriting Competition, then I forgot all about it.  Earlier this week, I received an email telling me the song is a finalist. Very exciting.  I think the winners for each category will be announced at the beginning of April. Or maybe it's June.  We'll keep you posted.  The songs are being listened to by a panel of judges that includes Tom Waits, Nancy Wilson and Ziggy Marley.  There is also a People's Voice Award.  "The People" can vote every day for their favourite song.  There are 15 other finalists in the kids music category.  I haven't listened to the other songs yet.  

I know I've been asking you to vote a lot lately, but if you could find the time to vote for us on this one too, that would be amazing.  Again, you can vote every day.

Thanks so much to everyone who voted for us in the CBC Searchlight Competition.  I really appreciate that you took the time to read our posts, watch our videos and set up those fiddly little accounts with CBC.

I just checked out the final 100 and we are not on the list.  But we had fun,  and hopefully spread the word a little further about good music for kids and families.

Thanks again everyone.

Ok here's the last question in the Ecological Cycle Song Quiz. It's the last day of Round 1.  It's the last time I'll be posting for a while.  Thanks to everyone who has voted and shared so far.  Let's do it one more time.  (By the way, there is a ghost in the machine on this one and Junkyard Rich sneaks in at the end.  I cannot edit him out.  {Ghost in the Machine is also probably my favourite album by The Police}) Here's the link 1 more time.  Vote Here Again!

2 more questions to go and two more days to vote in the first round (including today)  Voting for the first round end tomorrow, that's Wednesday at 3pm www.cbcmusic.ca/searchlight/4574

I really put a lot of effort into this one. I got up early and put on a fancy hat.  First round of voting ends tomorrow ( Wednesday) at 3pm.  The answer is in the song.  Please vote and share.
