About the Artist
Maria Sangiolo has been enchanting audiences with her pure vocals and warm stage presence for fifteen years. The Boston Globe calls her a "born singer." Beginning with her contemporary folk roots in Boston, MA and now residing in Connecticut, Sangiolo has performed in schools, libraries, community centers, festivals, coffeehouses and cocoa houses for both children and adults.

Born in the suburbs of Boston, Sangiolo studied voice at the New England Conservatory of Music. As a child, she studied violin until 6th grade. But when her violin teacher heard her sing, she encouraged her to learn the guitar so she could accompany herself and sing for others. She's been singing, playing and writing songs ever since.

Hello Moon, her first family release, features six original tunes and six traditional and contemporary songs. Sangiolo's originals were largely inspired by her early experiences becoming a mother. Playtime, "Barnyard Boogie" and nighttime "Angels Watchin' Over Me" songs are for the whole family. Hello Moon will have families dancing and singing together, again and again!

Fairy Moon - Songs of the Ring, is her second family release, featuring songs of love, nature, fairies and friendship for the whole family! Sangiolo captures the mystical and whimsical world of the imagination in 10 original songs and 11 covers produced with Celtic sounds of harp, whistle, fiddle, boohran, piano and acoustic guitar. Not just for children, the CD features 3 bonus tracks that are kid-friendly, for adults.

Her music has reached all corners of the United States, Canada and the European community. She toured extensively until 1997 and now mostly performs in the Northeast. Radio airplay has landed her music on the Americana charts and on the "most played" lists of Folk DJs around the world.

Sangiolo has shared the stage with Lucy Kaplansky, Dar Williams, Patty Larkin, Cheryl Wheeler, Sally Rogers, Livingston Taylor, John Gorka, Mark Erelli, Stephen Stills, and Janis Ian, to name a few. She has been headlining her own shows for the past ten years.

Product Description
Inspired by her daughter's Waldorf pre-school experience, Sangiolo set out to create a collection of easy-to-sing songs that connect the child and caregiver, with a touch of fantasy and reality!

Fairy Moon is a bike ride with mom on a hot summer's day, picking dandelion puffs in early spring, finding a fairy ring of toadstools in the garden, dancing atop dewdrops in the wee hours of the morning, getting into trouble with imaginary pixies, searching for little leprechauns in mid-winter who make shoes for the fairies, welcoming Lady Spring after a long winter, lullabies and fireflies who light the way to bedtime, songs of friendship, love and blessings for the whole family.

The CD culminates with three Bonus Tracks for adults (that are kid-friendly), beginning with First Best Friend, a song she wrote for all mothers.

Fairy Moon - Songs of the Ring,Maria Sangiolo,Raging River Records,Contemporary and traditional folk songs about love, nature, fairies and friendship, with a celtic sound, pure vocals, clever stories and music the whole family will enjoy.

Family favorite.......2006-03-02

I bought this for my 3yr old daughter to add variety to her music. This one became a fast favorite of the whole family. Maria paints a picture with the lyrics. The songs are fun and the vocals are beautiful. I especially like the celtic influence. A real winner.

Just recently bought this cd (for my eight year old daughter). One listen and I was hooked! These songs are for the whole family, not just for kids. Catchy tunes and wonderful vocals.

Enchanting Melodies for Your Little One!.......2004-08-31

A friend fo mine introduced me to Maria Sangiolo when my son was born and the whole family has fallen in love with her beautiful voice, smooth lyrics and enchanting melodies. We play the Fairy Moon at every mealtime and my ten month old son claps his hands, bangs on the table and grins from ear to ear every time we hit play. I reccommend this CD to all parents searching for a child's CD that won't drive them to insanity and that they will want to play even after the child has gone to sleep. We also love Happy Moon!
