Tom Chapin CDs — Giveaway-A-Day 12/11


Find the winner for Friday's Giveaway at the bottom of this post.
____________


Welcome to another week of amazing Giveaways! In fact, the final week of this month-long extravaganza. And since I know we've added lots of new readers over the past week, an extra welcome to you. I am so digging today's giveaway from awesome kid's music musician Tom Chapin. The winner will receive TWO SUPER AWESOME SIGNED BY TOM CHAPIN CHILDREN'S CD'S MOONBEAM AND MOTHER EARTH!!!





My husband, myself and all my children have been Tom Chapin fans for ages. Ben's brother Jim introduced us to his music with the Billy the Squid album and we were hooked. Tom makes the kind of music the whole family can love. And with 11 children's albums under his belt, there's a lot to love. But you don't have to take my word for it — his albums seem to be fully 5 star reviewed with nothing but positive feedback.

From his Bio: Tom Chapin's music spans styles and generations. For more than thirty years and through eighteen compact discs, Chapin has entertained, amused and enlightened audiences of all ages with life-affirming original songs told in a sophisticated array of musical styles. Tom's remarkable musicianship, great songwriting and personal warmth shine through whether he's performing in a concert hall, an outdoor festival, a school, in front of a symphony orchestra or in an intimate coffeehouse.


His website is simple but thorough. You can listen to his music, order albums, see his concert schedule, read lyrics and find any other info you could possibly want — like info on his albums for grown-ups and his book projects. You can also find his albums on any standard music sites, like Amazon.


Billy the Squid


Family Tree


Making Good Noise

Tom Chapin is so well known that my savvy readers most likely already have a library of his albums, but if you're not familiar with his music, you should so give it a try. And is it just me, or is it totally great timing on this giveaway — these CDs will be awesome in your children's stockings. In fact, I should get shopping, because the Blair's could way use another Tom Chapin CD.

Thank you, Tom Chapin!
