Keller Williams Announces Tour and Children's Book
11/18/2010
.
Keller Williams announces his tour plans for early 2011. In addition to evening theatre shows in Austin, Chicago, and Philadelphia, Keller has confirmed some special matinee performances/book signings in select markets. That's right, book signings. Hand-in-hand with the release of Keller Williams' sixteenth album — and first-ever album for kids and families — appropriately titled Kids, Keller once again breaks new ground with the November 30 release of his very first children's book, Because I Said So Before the year's end, Keller tours as the "Super Music Friend" along select Yo Gabba Gabba! Live! stops. For the holidays, Keller performs some very special shows in and around his hometown of Fredericksburg, Virginia, including his 10th annual SPCA Holiday Benefit. A complete list of currently confirmed shows – both evening and matinee performances - is included below. Based on Keller's song by the same name (included on Kids), Because I Said So is told through the eyes of "L'il Keller," who begins by asking, "Mommy, can I have some pink flamingos?" The little fellow soon learns the important life lesson that you can't always have what you want, and there isn't always a good reason why. "You can't have an alligator, tractor, giraffe or hippopotamus, cause I said so!" Enhanced by the cleverly drawn illustrations of Virginia artist Bill Harris, Because I Said So is humorous, colorful, heartfelt, and wise. Included with the book is a CD containing the song "Because I Said So." Because I Said So is available at www.kellerwilliamskids.net.
