Welcome! We're Nana & Obo
with Groovetoon Market !
At Groovetown Market, we're not your typical musical group. We're a bunch of, shall we say, "mature" musicians who've gathered a lifetime of musical experience, tales and wisdom, and we're here to share our passion with you. We'll be playing new family-friendly songs as well as fresh takes on old faves. So, kick back, relax, call the kids and let us take you on a musical journey like no other.
Leora Cashe has been sharing her joy of music with children for close to twenty years! As a Gymboree teacher, then as a teacher at the prestigious Music House for Children in London, England, and now with her many Music for Young Children students in Delta, BC, Miss Leora has started hundreds of new friends down the happy road of music learning.
This well loved Vancouver singer has released four CDs; her debut recording,“Tears of Joy”, (which received a West Coast Music Awards nomination), “Inspiration” , “My Heart Stood Still” and “Another Side Now ;The Songs of Joni Mitchell”.
Leora is thrilled about journeying with the musical adventures of Nanna and Obo.
