You Are Magic is an upbeat collection of songs designed to open a spiritual dialogue for young children and families. What are the values we choose to live by, and how do we express them? Who are we, and why are we here? How do we connect with others? Where does creativity come from? How do we connect to the natural world? What can we do to make the world a better place?
This album is a concept album. The over-arching theme is that our own creative energy and momentum, which comes to us (especially children) naturally, is reflective of the creative energy and momentum of the universe. Everything we do reflects how we are a part of something bigger, and the more we are authentic in our self-expression, the more we reflect the true nature of who we are and why we are here. I really felt like kids and families needed to know this - that creativity, awareness, connectedness, and empathy are the sources of becoming and growing into who you really can be in the world. I envision the album as a tree, starting with the Roots & Branches, and reaching all the way through the Leaves & Sky.

about
This song speaks to the key themes of the album - empathy, connectedness, forward motion, and inspiration. Through our creativity, our positive energy, and our awareness of others and the world around us, we can make the world a better place. We all have that ability, that special spark, and it’s magical.
lyrics
You Are Magic
You are magic, yes you are
Look what you can do, what you can do
You are magic, yes you are
The magic lives inside of you
Can you make the world a better place?
Just greet everyone with a smile on your face
See you did it, there’s nothing to it
You are magic, and you can do it!
Can you care for the earth and things that grow?
Just plant some seeds in nice straight rows
See you did it, there’s nothing to it
You are magic, and you can do it!
You are magic, yes you are
Look what you can do, what you can do
You are magic, yes you are
The magic lives inside of you
Can you give a hand to those who need it?
Draw a mouth on a box and gather coins to feed it
See you did it, there’s nothing to it
You are magic, and you can do it!
Can you sit very still, cross-legged on the ground
Can you close your eyes, and listen to the sounds
Can you feel peace and joy just filling you up
Can you open up your heart and share your love!
