Greggio!
Greggio!
Greggio! brings kids' music back to its roots... this time, to the roots of the jungle!
With guitar and banjo in hand, we'll travel through song through the palm trees to hear stories of bouncing monkeys, exoting frogs and rain forests of the imagination. Kids of all ages will enjoy Greggio!'s improvised antics, as he will equally enjoy the young audience participating in every song, both in French and English. And don't worry, the Earth-lovin' kid-friendly musician will be sure to bring along his famous tickle trunk of recycled instruments, shakers, whistles and all!
