Imagine that you write and perform your own children’s songs. For years you have been performing these songs in various schools and school systems across the country. Songs that you wrote and have been playing in the same schools for years. And then imagine that someone in the school system suddenly decides that your songs are not appropriate for children because they encourage bad behavior. Then another school system hears about it and they ban you and your songs as well? Soon the entire country is reconsidering their take on your brand of children’s songs. What happens next? What do you do? Where can you turn?

In this episode we’ll discover Barry’s beginnings: how he started and what led him to success he’s had as a writer of children’s songs. So, sit back, buckle up and come along for the ride.
