About the Artists
Jen Edgren
"Think like a kid! That's how you know what they'll like." That is Jen Edgren's philosophy whenever she is performing children's music. Whether at the Fall Folk Festival, at the Farmers' Markets, or in the classroom (Jen is a substitute teacher in SPS District 81), Jen enjoys performing for kids and families using engaging, interactive songs "for kids of ALL ages." Jen's main children's music influences have been Tom Chapin and Pete Seeger, among others. Jen is also a member of two bands, “Diminishing Faculties” and “Too Many Men,” as well as a member of the New Horizons Orchestra.
Jim Jones
Jim Jones is a former school teacher and a life-long musician. He has played guitar, bass, and has sung in a wide variety of groups. He's also an amateur songwriter and has written songs for children. Sometime in his 40's he discovered the real relationship between socks, shoes and feet which led to one of those songs.
