Award winning grassroots singer songwriter Anna van Riel is back with a wholesome serving of delicious melodies in her new interactive children’s album Cooking Up A Song. Primary aged children and adults alike are being delighted by this ukulele playing mother’s cheeky humour, melodic and catchy tunes, and fun and imaginative lyrics.
Cooking Up A Song has been bubbling away for some time in the background, waiting for just the right time to join the menu. It is a far cry from Anna’s previous albums residing in the cabaret, bluegrass and folk genres. Rather it boasts fun and imaginative songs that encourage children to interact through making sound and copying actions - all the while contributing to their positive brain development.
Cooking Up A Song debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Albums on 3 August 2015. It has been in the Top 40 Albums for one week with a highest position of #22. There is one album by Anna van Riel in the Top 40 Albums.
