"Walking through the streets of Greenwich Village with Ivan Ulz is like walking with a storybook hero. Every child we meet seems to know him as a friend." — The Villager
Next week is my birthday, and you're all invited to the party! My friends are holding a tribute concert on Saturday, May 10 from 3 to 5 p.m. at the No. 43 Stages @ Jimmy's No. 43. Click here for all the details. I really hope you'll come.
I had so much fun performing at Bowery Kids in early March, 2008 that I wanted to share some of it with the world. Click here to see a short video clip from the concert.
I hope you're planning to attend one of my upcoming free concerts at the New York and Brooklyn Public Libraries. In fact, I'll be performing in four boroughs -- Manhattan, Staten Island, the Bronx, and Brooklyn. Hope I'll be in your neighborhood soon, and that you'll come hear me play. Visit my schedule for a list of all the shows.
Have you ever seen my Uncle Don button? You can see it if you look closely at my hat. Click here to see a picture of my button.
"Uncle" Don Carney was one of the very first children's performers. Long before television was invented, Uncle Don sang and played every night for children over the radio.
You can hear Uncle Don's music on my favorite website, www.kiddierecordsweekly.com. Be sure to explore the rest of the site too, and listen to lots of great songs and stories "from the old school."
Hope to see you around this spring
