Details:
Singing and playing guitar, mandolin, bass guitar, banjo and Native American flute, Hans Mayer writes family oriented music with an infectious sense of humor that keeps kids enthralled. People of all ages are immediately attracted to his playful, fun-loving personality and his child-centered songs.
"Hans Mayer continues his light, easy-listening story-singing for youngsters on his seventh solo album ["Funny Little Creatures"]. The ten original and three traditional songs cover everything from getting stuck in the muck(“Grandpa’s Farm”) to aliens (“Funny Little Creatures”) to competition with a sibling (“Boxing in the Living Room” and “My Brother Has to Be First). Not to be missed are “The Flip-Flop Stomp” ( a danceable celebration of summer), “Night Crawlers” (an upbeat search for the critters), and “Puddle” (about the mud in the puddle in the middle of the road). It would be easy to mistake Mayer for Raffi in this rendition of “Mr. Sun,” since their voices have similar timbre. Mayer plays almost all of the instruments on the recording - guitars, mandolin, bass guitar, keyboard, harmonica, and kazoo. Kids will have fun singing along." - School Library Journal, August, 2008, Stephanie Bange, Wilmington-Stoop Branch, Dayton Metro Library, OH
His seven albums for families are hits with both kids and their parents. In 2007 his "Funny Little Creatures" CD was selected as a Parents'' Choice Approved Title and as a 2008 Children''s Music Web Award Winner.
In addition to children''s music, Mayer has toured and recorded with Native American recording artist Bill Miller, appearing on the Today Show, Austin City Limits, the World Cafe and the PBS special "Songs of the Spirit". Miller and Mayer have opened for top acts including Willie Nelson, Tori Amos, Pearl Jam and the BoDeans."You Are The Rain", a song co-written by Mayer and Miller, was selected for the soundtrack of the Rick Schroder independent film "Black Cloud".
