A Dolphin Song- Mother, "Live in the Moment, Now!" by Linda Kay Burk

Floating over the clear blue water in our small boat, I saw the most magical sight. In the distance, two tiny dolphins were twirling and spinning into the sky. Watching close by was their mother. I could just imagine those little ones callling to their mother to join them in their play. As the musical sound of the dolphin's squeals filled the air, a song came into my heart" - Linda Kay Burk

Positive Music: Sunshine is Love

 "Peaceful Melodies to Calm and Encourage Your Child"

It has been fun to have a new CD released this month!  Everyone agrees that Barry Hansen at hansencreative.com did a great job on the bright, whimsical cover.  His talents are really appreciated.  

Soon, I will be sharing a few of my new songs with a local kindergarten class, where they are planting some seeds for springtime.  ("She Planted the Seeds")  

Getting feedback that my  lullabies are helping children of all ages sleep better, is also rewarding.   It is a joy to add positives to a child's world!

I am pleased to share my first review of "Sunshine is Love".  It is a product of one of my favorite sites for Indie artists.

 

"Sunshine is Love" by Linda Kay Burk (Kids Artist from California(CA))

Singer/songwriter Linda Kay Burk has released another splendid album, titled "Sunshine is Love." Burk has captured the essence of writing finely crafted children's songs that soothe and comfort the mind and spirit. Her vocals are soft and peaceful while the lyrics are uplifting and relaxing. Burk's lullabies such as "Rainbow Bubble," with its soothing melody, will have any child fast asleep. "Heaven Is All Around Me" is an inspirational song layered with sweet strings and a gentle piano accompaniment. "She Planted the Seeds" is a playful ballad with syncopated rhythms and is filled with delightful lyrics about planting a garden. Linda Kay Burk's "Sunshine is Love" is a wonderful collection of songs filled with dreamy melodies that all children will love to hear.

Recording a New Children's CD

In November I finished recording my new children's CD,Sunshine is Love, at Lakeview Recording Studio. Laughter and fun sums up my experience of writing and singing these songs, and I have enjoyed the production of this CD immensely.  Surrounded by various experts in their fields, I have learned and grown as a singer/songwriter while watching my lyrics and melodies magically blossom.  

With Brian Jensen’s insight, expertise, and counsel my lyrics and melodies were brought to life.  Then, with his creative arrangements they took flight. Add to that the wonderful studio musicians who lent their positive spirit and many talents as they filled the studio with their angelic sounds.  With Brian conducting, they soared to the peaceful land of childhood dreams and joyful wishes.  Steve Lerud was a miracle-worker in the Lakeview Recording studio.  Ever watchful, jovial, and encouraging, his confident presence at the engineering station was an anchor.  His ideas and suggestions were always insightful and helpful.  Catching the bright, whimsical nature of my songs, Barry Hansen designed the delightful cover.  Greg Hansen’s good will, enthusiasm, and encouragement enveloped the project from the beginning.  With positive words, his kindness and support could be felt everywhere.  Sharing his vast knowledge of the music business comes so naturally to Greg.   Thank you!

 

"Singing the Songs of My Heart", CD Review-Songs for Children and Families

Singing the Songs of My Heart" is the family-oriented easy listening debut from singer/songwriter Linda Kay Burk. Linda Kay uses great imagery and narrative structure and draws from her own life experience to weave together these soothing and positive songs of comfort and joy. Particularly prevalent is her imagery of the great outdoors, as she sings about butterflies, dolphins, swimming, and playing outside. Each song is kid-friendly and some are outright children's songs, but her strong and soothing vocal performance and great, piano-driven arrangements give adults something to enjoy as well. The recording quality of "Singing the Songs of My Heart" is great, and the entire album sounds polished and professional. "I Believe in Miracles" is a ballad about Linda Kay's personal healing process, a more adult contemporary track with a fitting soft arrangement and a great vocal performance. "Live in the Moment, Now!" begins with the sound of crashing waves and a nice piano introduction, then turns into a song about taking the time to play with your children, to share joy with them and to live for today. Linda Kay Burk offers her heart and ten positive, uplifting tracks that can be appreciated by the entire family with her debut, "Singing the Songs of My Heart." If you are a parent who enjoys easy listening, adult contemporary and want a great album to put your child to sleep with, pick up this album.
