Eric Ode

About Me

Hi! I'm Eric Ode (pronounced Oh-dee), a children's singer, songwriter, poet, and entertainer. Thanks for swinging by my MySpace site! Feel free to stop by my web site as well -
www.ericode.com
A bit about myself...
I am a former elementary teacher of 12 years with a Masters Degree in Educational Technology.
I share music and poetry performances, assemblies, and workshops with schools, community festivals, education conferences, libraries, and churches all around and outside of North America.
I've been fortunate enough to pick up a handful of music awards including four Parents' Choice Awards and two Honors Awards from National Parenting Publications (NAPPA).
You can find my poems in many children's anthologies (12 collections as I write this) and magazines. My first book of poetry for kids, Tall Tales of the Wild West - And a Few Short Ones was recently published by Meadowbrook Press.
Oh!... And I LOVE what I'm doing!
One quick note to parents:
As much as I appreciate the MySpace community and all they do, I DO NOT (and they do not) recommend children surf MySpace unsupervised. There are far safer, more kid-friendly sites available. Thanks!
Peace and joy,
Eric

Band Members: Just me! But when I'm recording, I bring a whole mess o' friends into the studio. People like Mark Lange (bass, strumstick), Todd Babbitt (lead guitar), and Steve Lee (drums, percussion) turn up all over the place. They are amazing musicians and terrific friends.
