STEVESONGS COMING TO JAMMIN JAVA

Jammin’ Java Welcomes PBS Kids Musician SteveSongs “Warm, gentle humor and well-crafted, quirky wordplay run through Steve Roslonek’s creative songs and stories.” – Los Angeles Times January 13, 2014—SteveSongs, adored by millions of families throughout the country as “Mr. Steve,” co-host of the nationally broadcast PBS KIDS preschool destination, will bring his signature brand of seriously good (and seriously fun) music to the Jammin’ Java for three shows – at 10:30am, 12:30pm and 2:30pm. Tickets available at https://jamminjava.com/search?utf8=✓&q;=stevesongs. The concert will take kids and families on what LA Parent Calls “a marvelous musical journey” that will celebrate SteveSongs return to Virginia as well as the release of his eight album, Orangutan Van. Says Steve, “We’re excited that ‘Flat Stanley,’ and ‘Song without a Rhyme” the singles from Orangutan Van, both held the top spot on the Sirius/XM Radio Kids Place Live chart. The new album and some of its songs have been four years in the making, and I’m grinning to myself just thinking about sharing some of these new tunes, like ‘A is for Silly’ and ‘Superhero You’, with fans. We have some surprises planned for the live show, too, but I can’t give them away yet!” SteveSongs shows are fantastic, fun-filled, kid-pleasing extravaganzas, packed with great melodies, clever stories, and over-the-top interactivity. The Jammin’ Java audience will be sure to enjoy the boisterous call and response for "Grumpy Boy", the giggle generating, tricky audiation game in "Brush, Brush, Brush" and the heart pumping, hip hopping dance to one of Steve's most requested new songs, "Recess Rocks". For nearly fifteen years, Steve Roslonek, as SteveSongs, has been writing and performing his award-winning family music. A bright star on the kids’ music scene, Steve has delighted audiences at such prestigious venues as the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles, Symphony Space in NYC, Fenway Park in Boston, the Kennedy Center in DC, Wolf Trap in Vienna, VA, and even The White House. Steve’s music has won numerous awards, including two Parents’ Choice Gold Awards, a NAPPA Honor, two iParenting Media Awards, and a Kidscreen nomination for Best Children’s TV Host. Steve’s animated and live action videos online, including some for his popular illustrated books (published by Barefoot Books), have garnered millions of views. Since May 2008, Steve Roslonek, as “Mr. Steve,” has co-hosted the PBS KIDS preschool destination that features the popular shows Curious George, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That, Dinosaur Train, Super WHY! and Martha Speaks. Steve regularly makes appearances nationwide at PBS station events, and, along with other notable PBS KIDS characters, such as Hooper, he is a featured visitor at libraries across the country, encouraging kids to read through the JetBlue and PBS KIDS collaborative “Soar with Reading” program.
