Derek McKinley
Singing and playing music has always been a huge part of Derek’s life as far back as he can remember – from playing in bands, djing, even performing singing telegrams dressed as a penguin! The idea for writing children’s music and entertaining with Sing Song Party Time all started in 2005 while he was teaching English in Japan to kindergarten children. Years later after having his own kids, he found himself constantly picking up the guitar and singing as a means of educating them and just plain having a blast! The joy on their faces was enough to make him want to share this fun with more people through festival appearances, birthday parties, music/movement playgroups and other amazing family events!
