Quotes

“Lots to like about the Sharp Cookies, any band with the Ramones as a major influence is way cool in our book. Besides covering Rockaway Beach live, the Sharp Cookies dish sweet originals on Muddy Water Beaver Dam Band.”

- Louis Carlozo, Chicago Tribune

“A hit with the youngest crowd”

- Kara Spak, Chicago Sun-Times

“One of Chicago’s most influential kids musicians”

- Time Out Chicago

“Mr. Singer is the best around: a talented guitarist whose folksy music set featured music you could bob your head to, a kids’ musician who was more Springsteen and less Old MacDonald. Singer’s clearly a man who loves to perform; he rocked every tune, brandishing his guitar and jumping to the beat. The children adored him, and the mamas and nannies in the audience certainly gave him their rapt attention.”

- Elizabeth Shapiro, The Chicagoist

“I know Mr. Singer & the Sharp Cookies will sell out my venue every time they play. Their popularity with kids and parents is well deserved. A Sharp Cookies show is undeniably fun for everyone in the crowd.”

- Gomez: Owner of the Beat Kitchen

“Energetic and talented, Mr. Singer and the Sharp Cookies are not to be missed!”

- Jenna Murfin: Artist Referrals Manager at the Old Town School of Folk Music

“The Sharp Cookies are raucous rollers for the youngest in our midst—they’re unadulterated fun!”

- Sean Francis art critic: Chicago Tribune

“Mr. Singer plays to a packed house every week at the Lincoln Park Zoo. His young fans are captivated by his colorful costumes and interactive shows.”

– John Garcia, ABC News

“Mr. Singer, Chicago is grateful for you! Like most parents, I smile from ear to ear when I watch my kids dance and sing-along. Most of the time, it is infectious and I find myself on my feet dancing or spinning around one of my girls!”

- Cindy McCarthy, On the Go Chicago

“Mr. Singer can call me anything he wants as long as he teaches my daughter ‘All Shook Up.’”

- Rod Blagojevich, Governor of Illinois

“Mr. Singer’s weekly sing-a-long at the Lincoln Park Zoo has all the hallmarks of a rock show- packed, loud and most definitely standing room only. It’s one of Chicago’s drop-in-gems.”

-Chicago Parent Going Places
