Portland-based Aaron Nigel Smith brings us a lively reggae-fueled Saturday Family Concert with a call to action to get kids moving. His high-energy, interactive shows invite kids to jump, play, sing, and dance through a collection of hip and exuberant songs. With highly acclaimed, award-winning CDs, Smith practices what he preaches: there will be NO standing still!
