Bari’s songs are a huge hit with children and adults. Her catchy, pop friendly tunes, interactive live shows & top 10 songs on Sirius XM Kids Place Live have gained her and her band many thousands of young (and not so young!) fans. Their latest album Rock and Roll Garden won the Nappa Gold and Parents’ Choice Award and was picked as top 10 kids album of the year by Time Out Kids. Bari & her career were also featured in the New York Times. Bari’s acclaimed new album Anna and the Cupcakes will be released on Valentine’s Day, 2012.
Also a children’s yoga and music and movement specialist, Bari is also known for writing great music & movement songs for children.
Catch three of her videos airing now on select PBS Kids stations and Comcast on Demand including her #1 kids/yoga music video
“The Sun Dance.”
At Bari’s interactive live shows children may pop like popcorn, surf the waves, run like the gingerbread man and they may learn to “jam with the band.” As seen in many parenting magazines and on FOX-TV Morning Shows.
Refreshing simplicity and tuneful bounce mark this collection of splendid pop-rock songs for the wee set from singer-songwriter Bari Koral, who can write a clap-along song with the best of them (“Clap It!) and capture a young child’s “I’m a big kid now,” lunch-packing pride (“Backpack Song”) with her expressive pop soprano. Koral’s celebrations of the first day of school, best friends, colors and the “Big Sounds” of fire truck and train are pitch-perfect. Don’t be surprised if the irresistible “Hey Ducky” becomes a family anthem.
