LYNDHURST – Tots and grandparents alike will hop like frogs, clap and sing when Jeffrey Friedberg and his award-winning Bossy Frog Band perform at the NJMC’s Meadowlands Environment Center on Sunday, Nov. 9 at 1 pm. Admission is $5 per person and $4 for MEC members.
The Bossy Frog Band plays a combination of rock, country, bluegrass, reggae and folk music on guitar, banjo, harmonica and saxophone. The funny and original songs about nature, animals and the environment encourage audience interaction and appeal especially to children ages 1 to 8.
