The Okee Dokee Brothers are a Grammy winning independent band based in Minnesota. Their primary audience is children, but parents enjoy their music too! Their musical topics have ties to the Core Knowledge Curriculum and the ERA Pillars, so your children may have heard one of their songs or watched a video in Lower School Music class. On Saturday April 18th, they will perform with the Minnesota Orchestra at Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis. There are still tickets available for this show and you can get two FREE children’s tickets for each $15 adult ticket!
