About Me

CJ has an unusual, but often more effective approach to writing songs for children. For over 10 years, He has established himself as a chameleon-like artist who can comfortably jump from genre to genre including Rock, R & B, Disco, and Country. CJ's vocal is engaging, easy to follow, and always in the front of the mix. Additionally, his emphasis is on the music and vocal portion of children's songs, rather than silly, story-like lyrics. With this focus, kids are more easily engaged, as they won't listen to lyrics if the music and vocal doesn't grab them. Adults will find CJ recordings stimulating too! Whether they're dropping the kids off at school, or driving cross-country, CJ's genre-bending songs and infectiously playful approach to music will steal the hearts of little ones and big kids (adults) everywhere.
