Mr. Butch is a singer/songwriter who lives in New York City. He began playing music for kids over 10 years ago after he started working at an area preschool... and he hasn't stopped playing music with them since! Together with producer Andy Chase (Camera2, Ivy), and friends like Jim Belushi on harmonica, duet partners Dominique Durand (Ivy) and Mary Wood (numerous commercial hits), and with some excellent vocal assists from the kids, Mr. Butch's original kids songs have been brought to life! Honed over years of classes, sing alongs, and parties, the songs on Play Sounds reflect themes to which kids and adults can relate. Textured, mulit-dimentional and full of surprises, the listener will enjoy a rich landscape of sounds. Andy Chase's presentation of these songs provides a depth that will captivate both the young and old. Mr. Butch continues playing music with kids of all ages, teaching them, creating with them, and learning from them.
