Hans Mayer @ Artspire
on the Brickl Bros Stage
Hans Mayer plays infectious, catchy, acoustic based original music with a slice of swing, a tinge of blue-grass, and a little bit of soul. Hans’ CDs include songs with guitar, bass, mandolin and Native American flute. Hans’ eight award-winning albums for families are hits with both kids and their parents. In 2007 his “Funny Little Creatures” CD was selected as a Parents’ Choice Foundation Approved Title and as a 2008 Children’s Music Web Award Winner. In 2009 his CD for kids, It’s Our World: the Green Album, was selected as a Parents’ Choice Foundation Recommended Title and as a CD of the Year by the Creative Child Magazine Toy Awards.
In addition to children’s music, Mayer has toured and recorded with Native American recording artist Bill Miller, appearing on the Today Show, Austin City Limits, the World Cafe and the PBS special “Songs of the Spirit”. Miller and Mayer have opened for top acts including Willie Nelson, Tori Amos, Pearl Jam and the BoDeans.”You Are The Rain”, a song co-written by Mayer and Miller, was selected for the soundtrack of the Rick Schroder independent film “Black Cloud”
