Kids Blog and Journals

so i have the most random memories form my childhood.

once me and my Two primary school best friends both called sophie, were sat in the shad of the summer sun across the road where we spent every other summer and we all knew with out talking about it, that that was going to be the last time we were 2gether at the "green box". i remember us siting there and talking about how we REALLY didnt want to leave primary school and move up to high school.

in my year at primary school there was only 17 people and moving to a year of about 200 just wasnt wat i wanted. i LOVED being with the same poeple and knowing everything about each other.

needles to say i lost all but one of my friends from primary school and right now she lives miles away in london so im loosing her to now.

what im trying to get at is that i Loved being a kid, i could do what i wanted, with out haveing a worrie or a care in the world ... i coud play out side, runing about for hours just doing nothing but finding somthing fun to do. i want that back, i hate being 17 there is so much presure and so much i want to do but just cant..... dont get me wrong beeing 17 does how some advanterges but i just want a care free life like kids have.

Fresh off the heels of his successful debut album "The Trouble With People" (MPress Records), singer-songwriter Seth Glier is preparing to embark on "The 12 Days of Touring" starting in Boston, MA on Dec 30th and carrying on throughout the northeast for 12 consecutive shows; including dates at The Iron Horse Music Hall, The Rams Head Tavern, The Birchmere, & The Ark.

In the spirit of the holiday season, Glier has teamed up with the Coats for Kids Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing new and "gently used" winter coats to every child in need. "The 12 Days of Touring" will also host as a coat drive for the Coats for Kids Foundation before every show. A representative from Coats for Kids will be set up at each show to collect coats, hats, gloves, scarves & donations and will bring all the collections to a local school system in need.

Not only will Seth be performing at venues along the east coast for this special tour, but he has also dedicated two dates Jan 3rd & Jan 9th to giving back to the community by performing for patients at the Philadelphia VA Hospital and Cleveland Children's Hospital. Glier reveals, "I have an incredibly compassionate community of fans who are so willing to give back. They have inspired me, so getting involved with the hospitals just seemed like the most natural next step to pull this all together." Seth will also be rewarding his fans for contributing with a special gift each day of the tour! Stay tuned by becoming a fan of his Facebook www.facebook.com/sethglier or following him on Twitter www.twitter.com/sethglier for all the details.

As a green (environmentally conscious) artist, Glier continues to travel in his hybrid vehicle, promotes fan carpooling, & sells organic merchandise in support of his debut album "The Trouble With People," released November 3rd on MPress Records. Get your copy here or visit www.sethglier.com/store

About Seth Glier:
Singer-songwriter Glier was raised on the music of Joni Mitchell, Martin Sexton, and Jeff Buckley, but he considers his brother to be his greatest influence. "My brother is autistic and non-verbal. I learned to communicate with words better once I realized how to communicate to someone without them."

Boston-based Glier is already a seasoned troubadour, having shared stages with John Mayer, Martin Sexton, Erin McKeown and James Taylor. Other notable supporters of Glier's music include acclaimed singer-songwriters Ellis Paul and Livingston Taylor. Glier's accomplishments surpass his age -- he has performed hundreds of shows, including a set for more than 25,000 people on the National Mall in Washington D.C. Livingston Taylor says "Listening to Seth's music gives me hope for what's to come. The next generation is alive and well."
