Let’s face it: the problem with children’s music is that it’s made for children and just annoying to adults. New York musician Dan Zanes, who won a grammy for his album Catch the Train, writes songs that transcend the kid music/adult music gap. It’s music for the whole family. His socially conscious tunes, emphasizing subjects like multiculturalism and the importance of friendship, are perfect for the kids to wiggle to and will get your foot tapping as well. Sat 6:30 p.m.
