Kid-favorite and award-winning entertainer Farmer Jason, whose songs focus on teaching kids about the wonders of nature, will perform a lively, interactive concert geared to kids ages 2 to 8 at the Tick Tock Tavern.
The matinee is at 2 p.m. and advance tickets are encouraged. Tickets are $10 per person; children under 24 months are free if seated on a ticketed adult's lap.
Farmer Jason is th brainchild of rock music legend Jason Ringenberg of Jason and the Scorchers. An Americana Music Association Lifetime Achievement Award winner, Ringenberg is one of the pioneers of the modern Americana and alt-country genres. In 2002 he created Farmer Jason to educate and entertain children about farm life and the wonders of nature. He has released four records and a DVD, has earned four Emmy nominations and one Emmy win, and has won the Parents Choice Gold Award and appeared on the Los Angeles Times Children's Record of the Year list.
His highly acclaimed live show involves sing-alongs, dancing and discussions about nature appreciation, ecology and farm animals. Farmer Jason performs solo with just his acoustic guitar, which adds to the spontaneous, high-energy nature of his concerts.
