We’ll be putting on a super fun free show this Saturday at NorthPark Center for our friends at Bookmarks Library. 2pm start time. My good friend Brian Busch is going to join for a few songs with his accordion! We’ll be downstairs from AMC at center court, by the big orange sculpture.

As always we will be accepting donations for Mama Chicken’s Kitchen at the event. Click here to find out how our new program helps the homeless in Dallas.

I hope to see you there!

We had a super fun show today at Happy House in Red Oak, Texas. It got me excited about all the shows that are coming this spring and summer. I’ve included a few photos from today’s event, featuring the one-and-only Super Joanie! Be sure to check out some of her amazing tricks here!

This is a great time to book school and library shows. We do a lot of summer reading program shows around the state. My song “Book a Trip” is a natural fit!

Book your show today!

Dingle Burbis,

I have a special surprise for the new year – a brand new David Chicken single! It’s called “Play!” The song is about – you guessed it – going outside and playing. Climbing a tree, riding a bike, going swimming … whatever moves you! Watch the new video here.

You can also buy the song on iTunes here 
and Amazon here

We shot the video with our Emmy-Winning friends at Allen City Television, led by the super-talented director Mark Kaufmann. It was a lot of fun to shoot the video, since we filmed all around Allen at a lot of fun locations with nice people. The video has been used to help promote physical activity within the community. Now we’ll be using it for the same purpose around the world! 

So get out and PLAY and have super-fantastic 2014! Mama Chicken, Super Joanie and I are all doing well. We hope the same for you and your family.

Your friend,
David Chicken

I hope you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving. I am thankful for Mama Chicken and for each and every child (and adult) who enjoys our music. 

For some delicious holiday recipes, sure to check out Mama Chicken’s recipes page here. The second listing is for her Superstar Stuffing, which is amazing! It’s my favorite. 

On a related note, we performed “Mama Chicken’s Kitchen” on Wednesday at NorthPark Center and it was a big hit as always. It occurred to me during the song how appropriate it is for Thanksgiving, since Mama is rapping about her amazing turkey and pumpkin pie! Today is a great day to watch the video and get ready for a Thanksgiving feast! You can watch it here. 

Also attached are a few photos from our show for BookMarks Library at NorthPark on Wed. We’ll be performing there again this Saturday, November 30 at 2pm. See you there! 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Just a little entry to tell you about a great vacation that Mama Chicken and I took recently. We went on a cruise to Key West, Florida and the Bahamas! And of course I ended up entertaining on the cruise. When I heard they were looking for someone to play Elvis in their Legends show, I knew I had to audition for it. And I got the part! It was so much fun performing with dancers from Australia and England. The band was wonderful too. Everyone on the ship loved the show and called me “Elvis” for most of the cruise. Little did they know that a more appropriate name would be “Elvis Chicken”, ha!

 We explored Key West and learned all about the island. Did you know that Key West is home to the southernmost point in the United States? That was fun to see. We also learned about the classic American author Ernest Hemingway, and even saw his house. He had many six-toed cats, and their descendants are still at his house, most with six toes!

Then we went to the Bahamas and went on a glass-bottom boat voyage. It was fun to see all the sea fish and even some sharks! I sang “Funky Fish Party” to them but I’m not sure if they heard me. I also went snorkeling in Nassau, Grand Bahamas, which was amazing. The reef was so beautiful!

The people in Key West and the Bahamas were super friendly. I highly recommend visiting them someday to learn about their beautiful homes.
