Children's Entertainer Laurie Berkner Returns To Owings Mills In February

An annual tradition continues! Kids' music superstars Laurie Berkner and The Laurie Berkner Band invite families to dance and play on a cold winter's day at two concerts on Sunday, February 16, at 11:00 a.m. and  3:00 p.m. at Gordon Center for Performing Arts, 3506 Gwynnbrook Ave., Owings Mills, MD.

"I can't wait to come back to Owings Mills with the band!" says Laurie Berkner. "These concerts have become a yearly tradition that brings us much joy. There is nothing better than seeing the kids and families in the audience singing, marching, dancing, and making memories together. I'm so happy we get to do it again this year!”

A true pioneer in children's music, providing a soundtrack to childhood and memories that last a lifetime, Laurie Berkner and her band will perform songs from a career spanning more than 25 years in the entertainment industry, including such well-loved hits as "Victor Vito," "Bumblebee (Buzz Buzz)," "Pig On Her Head," "We Are The Dinosaurs," "Rocketship Run," and "The Goldfish (Let's Go Swimming)," and more recent fan favorites like "Superhero," "Waiting for the Elevator," and "Chipmunk at the Gas Pump." Laurie's concerts showcase an array of tunes that encourage kids and grownups alike to get up and dance. Kids should plan to bring their dancing shoes and a stuffed animal (for their heads).
