My Bio, In My Own Words

My name is Bill Currier and I'm a working musician and songwriter in the Greater Philadelphia area. I've played (and still play) original and cover material all over the country in several bands including “The Numbers” and “The Flamin’ Caucasians”. In addition to all of that I play music for small children and their parents.
That all started when my sons were toddlers and I took them to a local children's music class.
I was skeptical but soon saw how much they loved it and how they really wanted to go to the class each week. They got so much out of it and we really had fun together. It turned out that
I knew one of the teachers from playing in area bands and she offered me a part time job teaching the classes. I was really excited to do it especially after seeing the reaction in my boys.
A few years later I started my own program called We Kids Rock for small children and parents. Along with doing the classes I recorded 6 CDs of original and traditional Children’s songs arranged in classic rock ‘n’ roll, rhythm and blues, punk and reggae styles. I had a blast and got to play and record with allot of great musicians. Some I knew already and some I met through recording the material. The CDs were a huge hit with the kids and parents. We won 3 national awards and got some really nice reviews.
You can check out the CDs on any streaming site under We Kids Rock. For more info go to www.wekidsrock.com let me know what you think.
The We Kids Rock band is me and 3, sometimes 4 gifted musicians that I'm lucky to be able to play with. Our main goal is to play the songs from our CDs live among others and put on the best show that we can for kids and families.
In addition to the songs on the CDs, we play songs by the Beatles Bruce Springsteen, Michael Franti and even the Black Keys. We love it when the kids get to see their parents have a little fun.
Please come out and see the band. We think you'll enjoy it.
Here are some of the people who played on the CDs.
