💿 Press Play Together: Lullabies
Lullabies for Calm, Connection & SleepMusic has always been one of the first ways humans connect — before words, before routines, before screens.
I created Press Play Together: Lullabies for real family moments:late nights, soft lights, quiet rocking, and tired love.Moments when singing feels hard, but being present matters most.These lullabies are drawn from traditional and public-domain songs that have gently held families for generations, alongside simple original moments meant for humming, breathing, and rest.
They are arranged to be slower than expected, leaving space for calm, closeness, and ease.You don’t have to sing perfectly.You don’t have to know the words.You just have to be there — together.Thank you for inviting music into your home.May these songs bring calm, comfort, and connection.
With love,Dr. Mom Music • Parent • Music Education Professor

💿 Press Play Together: Hymns & Harmony
For many of us, hymns live deep in the body.They remind us of childhood, community, comfort, and hope —of being held in song during moments of joy, grief, faith, and waiting. Press Play Together: Hymns & Harmony was created for quiet listening at home:early mornings, hospital rooms, evening prayer, reflection, and rest. Each hymn on this recording is a public-domain work, gently arranged and performed on organ with simplicity, warmth, and space.These are not meant to sound like a Sunday morning service. They are meant to sound like peace. Slower tempos, soft registrations, and familiar melodies invite stillness and breathing — a reminder that we do not carry life alone. May these hymns bring reassurance, memory, and comfort,and may they help you feel held — together.

💿 Press Play Together: Dance Party - Music for Moving, Laughing & Dancing
This album was made for kitchens, living rooms, and everyday joy. Press Play Together: Dance Party is not about perfect moves or keeping the beat. It’s about moving our bodies, laughing together, and reconnecting through music — even on busy, messy days. Each track is designed to be simple, repeatable, and inviting. Piano grooves, claps, stomps, spoken cues, and space for imagination encourage kids and adults to move side-by-side — following, leading, freezing, spinning, jumping, and resting. Movement helps regulate emotions, build confidence, and strengthen connection.But most of all, it helps us have fun together.No choreography required. No pressure to perform. Just press play — and dance like a rockstar. I hope this music brings joy, release, and togetherness into your home.
