Night 6- Hot Stuff
Night 6 of 500 Songs for Kids 2011 had both levels of Smith's Olde Bar rocking. Southern Ground Artists Levi Lowrey, Sonia Leigh, and Nic Cowan played to an intimate sold-out crowd in the Atlanta Room, while the countdown of 500 Greatest Feel Good Songs of All Time continued upstairs. Both Cowan and Lowrey played songs off the countdown after their Atlanta Room set, including one of the night's highlights- Lowrey's version of Otis Redding's "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay." See video below.
Ziggy The RockStar & The Branches started the night off to a great start with the youngsters spot on note-for-note rendition of The Jackson 5's "ABC. Several members of Please Rock played throughout the night from Yacht Rock Schooner, Alyssa Olson, and Alyssa and Peter Olson's charming duet of "Anyone Else But You" from Juno. The Falcon Lords turned M.I.A.'s "money stealing" "Paper Planes" into a "money saving" jingle. Songs for Kids Foundation members (Kendra Gurkin, Josh Rifkind, Sanjay Kothair, and Justin Kerenyi)- performing as Lady and The Tramps- delivered some holiday cheer with their festive take on SNL's Christmas song, originally made famous by Jimmy Fallon, Chris Kattan, and Horatio Sanz. The Orkids also added some sporty flair to The Knife's "Heartbeats." Check out Night 6's photos!
