Her music is New Orleans–inspired family jazz that stirs in zydeco, swing, blues, and a dash of Caribbean flavor. She performs “jazz for young audiences” with her band, the Leaping Lizards. Expect playful songs with ukulele, banjo, accordion, fiddle, horns, washboard, bass, and drums.

Why we think you’ll love it

This is true all-ages jazz: grown-ups get real New Orleans swing while kids get catchy hooks and easy rhythms! It’s perfect for dancing and singing along, and she reimagines familiar playground songs so they feel fresh. Clean, upbeat lyrics and colourful instruments—horns, washboard, ukulele—keep everyone smiling in the car or at a kitchen dance party.
