Run Along Home with Tracy Newman

Tracy Newman grew up in Los Angeles. She started playing guitar at 14, usually sitting on the diving board of her family’s pool, strumming for hours each day. Back then she was mostly influenced by the Kingston Trio, because she could actually play some of their songs, especially “Tom Dooley” which had, and still has, only two chords... Growing Up

Tracy has been playing guitar and collecting folk songs all of her life. As a teen she led summer camp sing-alongs; in her 20s she performed in a PBS children's educational music series called ``What's New``; in her 30s she taught nursery school and ran the singing programs. She now performs regularly at schools where the kids learn the songs from her CDs and sing along in joyous refrain!
