The name Mark Bernstein may not be familiar to most parents, but it should be. Bernstein is an award-winning children's musician based in Indianapolis. "Sing with Me" is the second album from the talented singer/songwriter. Mark’s first CD, "Walk with Me," was produced in 2003.
Bernstein's music is not only loved by kids but adults and parents love the songs as well. "The last thing I want to do is drive parents crazy or bore them to no end. I'm completely aware that parents have to listen to their kids' favorite albums over and over again so I make sure to appeal to all age groups."
Completely self-taught, Bernstein has always had a natural gift when it comes to music. "I've been playing piano by ear since I was a little kid and I started plucking the guitar a few years after I graduated from college. Writing music has always come easy to me and I love writing for kids." Bernstein adds, "Being a father of two, I get so much inspiration from my boys. They inspire me to come up with fun, meaningful music."
Bernstein interjects his upbringing into his music. Raised on 80's pop, he keeps his songs upbeat, melodic, and engaging. Lyrically, he wants every song to have meaning. "Each song has a theme or message that I want to get across. Sometimes it's obvious and sometimes it's more subtle. This is where parents come in. I want my music to be something families can enjoy listening to together and it can potentially serve as a way for parents and children to communicate as well".
