Ernie & Neal is one of the most engaging, inspiring, memory-creating recording acts from the Philadelphia region playing parent friendly kids' rock. Ernie & Neal encourage audience participation from beginning to end. With tunes ranging from rock to reggae and including ska, jazz and bluegrass, they'll have your kids dancing and singing…and you too. Children join the celebration, on stage, with more dancing, singing and acting out the various songs.
