Timeline

1969

Laurie Berkner (born March 15, 1969) is an American musician and singer best known for her work as a children's musical artist and a teacher.

She plays guitar and sings lead vocals in The Laurie Berkner Band, along with pianist Susie Lampert, bassist Winston Roye, and drummer Bob Golden.

She is a popular artist in the kindie rock genre.

Growing up in Princeton, New Jersey, Berkner attended Princeton High School and was involved in choirs, bands and musical theater.

As a student at Rutgers University, she toured Europe as a choir soloist and an orchestral guitar player.

After working as a summer-camp music counselor, she spent several years as a children's music specialist for day care centers and preschools in the New York area.

1992

In 1992, she began to perform as a professional rock musician, playing in an all-female cover band called Lois Lane.

When she started a band that played original music, Red Onion (Berkner, Brian Mueller, Adam Bernstein and Alan Lerner), she found songwriting to be a struggle—a problem that disappeared when she started writing children's music.

"Writing music for kids has not been a struggle at all," Berkner has said.

"The more I started working on material for children, the more I realized that it opened up creativity in me that I never knew I had."

Some of her first performances as a children's musician were birthday party gigs at $125 a show.

"Those days were intense," she told The New York Times.

"I used to arrive early and memorize every child's name, so I could feel like I knew them."

1997

In 1997, working with Susie Lampert, Mueller and guest bassist Adam Bernstein, she put out her first album, Whaddaya Think of That? as a cassette-only release.

She had been encouraged to record by the parents of the children she worked with.

"The children were really responding to the music we created together," she said.

The album contained original songs like "We Are the Dinosaurs" and "I Know a Chicken", along with covers of classics like "The Cat Came Back" and "Wimoweh (The Lion Sleeps Tonight)".

1998

In 1998, Berkner formed her own independent record company, Two Tomatoes Records, to release her second album, Buzz Buzz, which includes such Berkner standards as "Pig on Her Head" and "Monster Boogie".

1999

With 1999's Victor Vito, Berkner achieved national fame, appearing on the FX network's American Baby Show and winning a Parent's Guide to Children's Media Award.

2001

Berkner's audience increased dramatically when she appeared on The Today Show in 2001.

Since then, she has played in high-profile venues such as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center; she has also played at the White House Easter Egg Roll.

Berkner also played a free concert in Central Park to celebrate Earth Day, which was attended by fifteen thousand people.

2006

Mueller, who is married to Berkner, left the band in 2006 "to keep the couple's personal and professional lives separate", and was replaced by Adam Bernstein.

Berkner has also appeared in Jamarama Live!, a touring music festival for children sponsored by Noggin, and in the 2006 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

We Are...The Laurie Berkner Band has sold more than 400,000 copies since its 2006 release.

Laurie has also authored two e-books, Party Day and Candy Cane Jane.

2008

Her album Rocketship Run came out in August 2008.

2009

In 2009, Bob Golden became the band's drummer after producing Rocketship Run, as well as We Are The Laurie Berkner Band and all of her songs for Jack's Big Music Show.

In 2009, she was featured on Ziggy Marley's children's album Family Time in a song called "Future Man, Future Lady".

She and her band appeared on the Nickelodeon Mega Music Fest and performed "My Family".

Berkner has written two children's books: Victor Vito and Freddie Vasco, based on her song Victor Vito, and Story of My Feelings.

She has also released two DVDs called We Are...The Laurie Berkner Band and Party Day!.

2010

Berkner was also a judge for the 10th annual Independent Music Awards to support independent artists' careers.

With Lampert and Mueller, Berkner regularly appeared on the Noggin television channel in music videos played between programs and on the program Jack's Big Music Show.

2012

A greatest hits compilation, The Best of The Laurie Berkner Band followed two years later, and A Laurie Berkner Christmas was released in 2012.

2013

Adam Bernstein left the band in 2013 and was replaced by Grammy Award nominee Brady Rymer.

In 2023, Rymer left the band to focus on his own band, the Little Band That Could, and was replaced by Winston Roye, who toured with Grammy Award winning band, Soul Asylum.

Her music is generally in a major key and in what Berkner calls the "human tempo" of 100–120 beats per minute, approximately the speed of walking or marching.

Her lyrics have been called "self-effacing and occasionally confessional."

In March 2013, a new short-form animated musical preschool series, Sing It, Laurie!, debuted on 24-hour preschool television channel Sprout.
