Danton O'Day's Music

I've been writing music since I was a teenager. I've also played in a number of groups in Canada and the US playing everything from bluegrass to rock and roll. A couple of years ago, Mike Myre, my PhD student, asked me if I wrote children's songs. I thought maybe he was casting a slur on my musical compositions but he followed this up by asking me to work with him and his wife Myra on the music for an exercise video for children. The result was the music for the video and DVD "Workout with Ticker for a Healthy Heart".

Monkeys Don't Wear Shows

The video was a great success and in response to requests, Myra, Mike and Dan produced another set of 7 "Exer-songs" for the Music CD "Monkeys Don't Wear Shoes, or Cowboy Boots".

I've followed this up with a solo children's CD called "Frog in My Hat" .
