"Gravity Vacation” is the debut kindie (kids independent) record for DC-based singer/songwriter and music teacher Marsha Goodman-Wood. The original melodies mix generous doses of science and positive social messages into songs that are just plain fun and make you want to sing and dance along! Her quirky, smart compositions take on topics from astronomy (answering the age-old question "Why Can't You Dance on Jupiter?") to nonconformity ("Sheep Don't Wear Shoes") to biology ("The Penguin Song"). A former cognitive neuroscientist, Marsha includes fun facts and lessons in her songs. With tunes and stories that please children and grownups alike, this fun music is a great fit for your home record collection, while the educational content also makes it a great addition to any library or classroom collection. Produced, mixed and mastered by TJ Lipple (Recorded at Inner Ear Studios, Arlington, VA) Photography & artwork by Miriam Cutelis * Gravity Vacation (the album) was nominated for a Wammie for Best Children's Music Recording of 2012 by the Washington Area Music Association * Sheep Don't Wear Shoes was awarded an Honorable Mention in the 29th Annual Mid-Atlantic Songwriting Competition
