Laurie Berkner is celebrating the 25 th anniversary of her children’s album “Victor Vito” with a digitally remastered re-release that will be available on streaming platforms, CD and vinyl. “It will have a beautifully updated cover and the record itself will be blue, to call back to the color of the original cassette,” said Berkner, who splits her time between Manhattan and Red Hook, New York. “I color-coded my first three albums so kids who were not able to read would still know which cassette contained their favorite songs. 'Whaddaya Think Of That?' was yellow and 'Buzz Buzz' was red.” This autumn, the singer-songwriter will release "A Laurie Berkner Halloween," which will include old favorites and brand- new tracks. Fans may follow Berkner on Instagram and Facebook at @laurieberknerband. She’s also active on YouTube (@thelaureberknerband) and TikTok (@laurieberkner).

For just a moment, it disturbs this oasis of peace.
