Hi, I’m Jesse Goldman, the creator of the bilingual family music program Moozika! (www.moozika.com) For more than 9 years, I’ve been running my award-winning kids’ music program in Spanish and English in Brooklyn. Thanks so much for considering to support my new album entitled “We Are One.”

I wrote this album to lift families’ spirits and inspire children during these topsy-turvy times we’ve been living in. My collection of songs focus on themes of unity and taking good care of ourselves and others.

“We Are One” is packed with silliness and funky beats. On this musical journey, we make funny faces, play peek-a-boo, slide across the Brooklyn Bridge with Sammy the Snail, go kale krazy, and dance like monkeys and lions in the tune “Baila!” We also take a deep dive into the Caribbean sea with my song “Swim, Swim,” which many of my students’ parents tell me is a popular one at bath time and at the beach.

In keeping with the theme of unity, the songs are in a broad range of styles from around the globe, including Salsa, Reggae, Calypso, Hip-hop, Rock, Pop, and Folk.

One part of the album that I particularly love is hearing my young students singing, laughing, and sharing their know-how on a number of the tunes.

As of May 19th, this project has raised $18,400 of their $18,000 goal. This project has 6 days left to raise as much as it can. For a pledge of $25, you will get one digital album. For a pledge of $35, you will get one signed CD. To learn more and to pledge money, go to: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2028834160/we-are-one-1?
