 Higher Ground Poster by IMAKEART4U

Saturday December 26th will be the third time The Minor Key performs at Higher Ground with the always intense, always amazing Paul Green School of Rock Allstars.

 

This year we're lucky enough to have our friends at Star 92.9 help us celebrate this event by GIVING AWAY TICKETS ON THE AIR!   If you listen to Star 92.9 the week before the show you might get lucky and win some tickets!  But a word to the wise: don't wait forever to get your tickets because our Youth Rock Concert at the Monitor Barn in Richmond sold out!  

 

As always, this is a show will be family friendly (and loud) so come prepared to rock with your kids.

The History of The Minor Key PDF Print E-mail

Buddy Dubay has been a teacher and children’s musician since 1984.  In 2001 he released Children’s Song Garden, a diverse collection of traditional and original music for families.  In 2004 Buddy began to formulate an idea that kids could write, record and perform original music.  They could be empowered to have involvement and ownership in every step of the process, including studio tasks like mixing and mastering.   The Minor Key was born.

The group’s first collection, Rockin’ in the Pet Shop, was started in the fall of 2004 at Resting Lion Studios in Huntington, Vermont and completed in January 2006.  This fun CD includes songs written by kids in a wide spectrum of musical styles. 

Buddy Dubay and The Minor Key have performed at many venues including schools, farmers markets, summer concert series, kid’s festivals, libraries and on live radio.  Twice they have opened for the Paul Green School of Rock at Higher Ground in South Burlington and again at the School of Rock Festival in Philadelphia. 

The new CD released in November 2008 is called What Can We Do? and is a compilation of original songs with one bonus track, In My Room by the Beach Boys.  The groups sings about environmental and social concerns one minute, then gets silly and whimsical the next.  This CD, like all Minor Key music, is a vehicle for kids to express themselves musically in the full range of emotions.

 

The Minor Key = Vermont Kid Powered Rock and Roll!
