Award-winning New Mexico children’s musician Andy Mason brought his educational, interactive and fun musical performance to the Carlsbad Public Library on Friday June 9th, 2023. Andy had the audience dancing and singing along to his songs about pizza, burritos, sharks, pirates, owees and hand washing!

Offering songs in English and Spanish, Andy Mason brings a little of New Mexico to each of his performances. Andy also offers workshops and keynotes for educators throughout New Mexico and Texas. Emphasizing the importance of music in the education of children is a very important aspect in Andy’s workshops.

He is on a summer library tour, performing for children all over the southwest. He will be back in Carlsbad on Saturday June 10th from 3-4 pm for a teen songwriting workshop. Saturday’s teen writing workshop will include writing, rehearsing, and performing a song written during the workshop.
