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!
