Laurie Berkner to Perform Family-Friendly Halloween Shows in Concord
Kids' music superstar Laurie Berkner invites families to monster-boogie on down and stop in for a spell at two "Halloween Party Concerts" at 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 26 at Capitol Center for the Arts, 44 S. Main Street, Concord, NH.
"I'm so excited to continue the tradition of my Halloween concerts in Concord, NH!" says Laurie Berkner. "I love being part of the incredible community celebration and getting to sing and dress up in costumes with my fans for the holiday. We'll march like dinosaurs and swim like fish as we climb aboard the Halloween Train together!"
Laurie's Halloween concerts are a mix of Halloween songs, Laurie Berkner hits, and well-loved songs that are rarely played at Laurie's shows. As a special treat for Concord audiences, Laurie will also perform songs from her new album, A Laurie Berkner Halloween. Laurie will treat little tricksters to songs like "Halloween Train" and "Which Witch." She'll have everyone singing along to "What Am I Gonna Be (for Halloween)?," "Monster Boogie," "I Picked One Pumpkin," and "Choc-o-lot In My Pock-o-lot," and an array of such Laurie Berkner hits as "We Are the Dinosaurs," "Victor Vito," "Chipmunk at the Gas Pump," "The Goldfish," "Moon Moon Moon," and "Pig On Her Head."
Kids and grownups alike are encouraged to come in costume, bring their dancing shoes and a stuffed animal (for their heads!) and get set for an un-boo-lievably fun time.
