Mixed-Up Morning Blues (2010)
Mixed-Up Morning Blues has been one of Mark’s most requested songs for the past thirteen years. Here it is served up by a righteous twelve-piece band with a ton of help from “his kids,” along with lively illustrations in an easy-to-follow book format. It’s an inspired project that beautifully brings together Mark’s extensive experience and passion as both a blues musician and an educator. According to Mark, you can teach kids almost anything with music, and they do “get” the blues.
Quotes about Mixed-Up Morning Blues
IPBA Benjamin Franklin Children's Audio Book of the Year Silver Medalist.
"Bring Mark Ross, a guitar, and a group of young children together in a room, and you have magic. Mark's ability to use his music to teach language, math, anatomy, movement - you name it - all the while handling a preschool crowd that can rival any late night blues club, is pure joy".
--Linda Duerr (Director, Penn State Child Development Lab)
