Musical treat for kids at Hawk’s Well

-

HE’S coming to the Hawks Well, on Sunday 5 th November with two performanc­es of musical fun for children.

Kyle Riley is an American singersong­writer who lives in Meath with his wife and two young children. The birth of his children sent him on the path of writing songs for kids.

He’s been performing his music for children in the UK and Ireland since 2012 and has self produced two CD’s of children’s music mixing his own original works and more traditiona­l nursery rhymes.

Since moving to Ireland in 2015, Kyle has built a dedicated following of ‘ toddler rockers’ by bringing this unique brand of children’s music to towns across Meath, Cavan, and Westmeath.

Five days a week, he performs live music sessions for babies, toddlers, young children, and their carers under the banner- ‘Little Folk- Music for Young Children’.

He is now undertakin­g plans to expand the Little Folk brand in order to share his music with a wider audience by recording a fully produced studio album featuring 23 original tracks. A fundraisin­g campaign is currently underway to make this dream a reality.

If 1000 people pre-order a CD, the funding target will be met and everybody gets an album of high- quality music that they can be proud of being a part of. If the target isn’t met, everybody gets their money back.

In addition, Kyle is taking ‘Little Folk’ on the road. He’s put a tour together which brings his live music sessions for under 6’s to regional theatres across Ireland.

Beginning with the summer festival circuit including Electric Picnic last month and now spanning Donegal to Wexford, Belfast to Limerick and many places in between it’s sure to be a busy end to 2017 getting the children of Ireland singing.

Don’t miss his show at The Hawks Well, Booking essential. Give them a ring at (071) 916 1518.
