Miss Joyce's Musical Classroom First Day Of School CD

The Message in Her MusicCome Be With Me sets out to "promote a sense of family, culture, community and pride," according to Folami. The lyrics are written in a way that motivates, inspires and empowers youngsters through life affirming themes to help them feel good about themselves and their destiny. Songs such as Good Morning, Take A Nap, Have Fun, History No Mystery, and Straight to the Family."Come Be With Me" and "ABC's of Unity" are sure to be family favorites on road trips and getting ready for school in the morning.

Folami delivers song after song with a solid, soulful, soothing and symphonic quality reminiscent of a cross between Roberta Flack and Jill Scott. While the content of the music is for children, the production is funky and contemporary, which is loads of fun for the entire family with all of its eclectic blend of music with neo soul, hip hop, country, jazz and classical cuts.

New Project in DevelopmentThe magic of the awe-inspiring, catchy and entertaining tunes on her CD will permeate her current project, which is under development, of a children's television show which features the playful and loveable characters "Sunny Sydup (side-up)" and "Silver Lining." Through songs and prose these two affable girls guide the viewing audience through some of the bumps and bends in life to help little folks deal with big issues, provide messages of hope and lessons of inspiration. They will also traverse those heart felt moments in life as well, things we can sing, laugh and feel good about.

FROM School Library Journal This beautiful collection of 13 original songs by talented singer/songwriter Frances England deserves a place in every collection. Calling to mind such performers as Sarah McLachlan, Ani DeFranco, and Neko Case, England is the indie/alt rocker for the preschool set. While the songs' lyrics address subjects that toddlers can relate to, they also draw on experiences and moments that every mother will recognize.
