David “PapaHugs” Sharpe, a local Grammy award nominated children’s musician, will be performing a free concert on Sat., Jan. 7, from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., at the Desert Foothills Library, 38443 N. Schoolhouse Rd., Cave Creek. The concert will be a fun, interactive, and upbeat performance of all original “PapaHugs” music for children of all ages and their families.
David Sharpe has performed for thousands of children around the country at libraries, children’s museums, festivals, and special events. His music comes from observation of all the wonderful and imaginative things children say and do. Many of his songs have been influenced by his experiences with his own children and grandchildren.
Since most schools today lack exposure to music, and music brings people together to express ourselves and use our imagination, Sharpe’s mission is to fill that gap with performances such as this one.
