October - November Performance Updates

Cooler weather is settling in...

I finally exchanged my Spring/Summer wardrobe for Fall/Winter and still have to put away my sandals and organize my pumps and boots!  I will get to wear my red pumps more often in the coming months.

One of my favorite Fall music sets to perform during this time of year is a grouping of songs that fit in a Halloween theme, but are not known as Halloween songs.  For instance, imagine what the "Purple People Eater" looks like!  Witches, flying monkeys, magic ruby slippers, and wizardry are the essence of some songs from "The Wizard of Oz" ("Ding Dong, The Witch is Dead!").  Don't forget the famous lines in "The Witch Doctor" ("Ooh Eee Ooh Ah Ah Ting Tang Walla Walla Bing Bang").  We have "Ghost Riders in the Sky" and "The Cat Came Back".  Then, I have made sure to include some sweet music, like "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered".  "That Old Black Magic", (What was Cinderella's Fairy Godmother's magic word?) and "The Candy Man" (The Candy Man can...who wants candy?) are included too.  (There's a lot more fun in this set.)

If you have any favorite nostalgic songs that fit in a Hallowen Theme (by title or subject), please share!  Maybe I will add them next year!

November comes soon, and we should remember to be thankful.  On the other hand, we needn't wait until Thanksgiving, when we can be thankful for something every day.

Read on for an update of my activities (which I am very thankful for!).

Grandma Paula
Music & Creative Play for Kids

Grandma Paula has no public performances planned at this time, as entity Paula C Snyder is staying quite busy!  Grandma Paula is still available for toddler birthdays, family gatherings, open houses, and preschool events.  Please connect!

"Meet Cookie (the dog)" illustrated song (picture book with audio CD - book narration & song by Grandma Paula and illustrations by Mac McCord) is available at public performances, on the website, and on Amazon (without the CD).  Page 158 Books, in Wake Forest, NC, also should have some copies of both versions of the book.

Pick up a your copy -  a great gift every day, and a wonderful stocking stuffer to consider while you are out holiday shopping.

Visit Cookie and "Like" her on Facebook.  She also has a Twitter Handle, and Pinterest Board!  Grandma Paula is on Pinterest too.  Come follow us!

Amber & Paula
Daughter & Mother Duet

Daughter & Mother:   Amber & I are working on securing our public venue for 2015's annual "Holiday Extravaganza" performance.  We hope to perform on Sunday, December 13 or Sunday December 20.  Watch for news....

We are still open to connecting with new venues.  Please feel free to make suggestions if you are aware of any locations where we can invite the public to come listen and be engaged!

Please ask if you have an event for us.  There are still a couple of openings in December.
 

Custom/Original Music & Poetry

I have been really enjoying creating custom poetry and delivering live serenades!  Last week, I compelled a woman to take a vacation with her husband (who thought she was getting too stressed).  I performed requested songs and others that fit, then wrote and delivered a special poem, which asked her to commit. 

(She said "yes").

Call me to design a customized poem or song to help you express your heart to someone special.  (The original poems and music can be delivered electronically near and far)
