    PERFORMANCES

    Alex has written over 100 positive, entertaining and educational songs, with over 250 "in the making", 48 which are drawn from his 5 professional recordings and intergrated into his performances. Songs such as "The Popcorn Song" (literacy; this song has received interest from a children's book author due to its phonetic possibilities), "Bird in the Air" (nature), "Back on Track" (self-esteem), "Canadian Kid" (multi-culturalism), "Full Moon Flyer" (environmental issues), "I Love My Family" (family values), "Walked On The Beach" (humour) and "Shine A Smile" (empathy) are often requested.

    In concert, Alex integrates these songs with some familiar and traditional favorites with such show titles as "Goodtime Train," "En chantant on apprend", and "Plain Ol' Good Fun." He also has special holiday and theme shows (Christmas, Halloween) which are also popular. For a description of Alex's current performance options, please contact the Goodtime Train office.
