Greetings friends!

We just had an amazing program from Mr. Evan at Music at the Blissful and I wanted to share our experience for anyone looking to book an amazing children's music program for next Summer. Evan started his performance with a warm up to get all the kids comfortable. He even learned all of their names and referred to them by name throughout the entire show. Evan was very skilled at readjusting as needed to accomodate the group of very young children. One toddler started to get fussy and within 30 seconds, Evan had switched gears and rengaged the fussy toddler and we were back to smiles! Evan engaged our most reluctant little patrons and encouraged them to let loose and have fun and even made the older siblings feel welcomed, special and important.

We also got great patron feedback on this program as well.

Here's his webiste for more information: https://www.musicattheblissful.com/
