Grammy-Nominated Children’s Artist Snooknuk Releases Uplifting Single Just in Time for the Holiday Season
Our lives are so fast-paced that most of the time, we tend to forget the simple joys and blessings that surround us every day. This holiday season, Grammy-nominated children’s music artist Snooknuk reminds us to pause and appreciate the world around us with her latest single, “Thankful.” Released today, November 1, 2024, this upbeat Doo-Wop-inspired track is poised to become the new family jam that will have listeners of all ages dancing and counting their blessings.
Behind this heartwarming new release is Cheri Moon, the creative force of Snooknuk. With an extensive background in the pop music industry, Moon has worked with renowned artists such as Timbaland, Jimmy Douglass, Kevin Rudolf, and Danja. Her impressive resume includes scoring #1 hits on DMC World Charts, UK & Music Week Upfront Club charts, as well as writing jingles for major commercial campaigns, including McDonald’s, Dr. Pepper, K-Mart, Joe Boxer, and Burger King. Moon’s talent extends beyond the music studio – she was also an executive producer for music and episodes of the PBS show “Bug Bites,” which teaches children about bugs and nature.
Snooknuk’s journey in children’s music began when Moon was inspired by her own kids to create songs that would motivate, inspire, and encourage little ones. Her mission to make a difference by teaching valuable life lessons and social awareness while bringing fun to daily activities has resonated with families across the nation. Snooknuk’s music has become a classic part of the education system for early childhood development, having been approved by the Library Board and constantly in demand for pre-schools, elementary schools, library and mall events, and family festivals.
“Thankful” is the first single from Snooknuk’s much-awaited upcoming album “All in Good Time,” produced by multi-Grammy winner Lucy Kalantari. The song’s cute, upbeat melody is designed to lift spirits throughout the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons and keep families dancing well into the New Year. With its infectious Doo-Wop and Motown vibes, “Thankful” is set to become a classic go-to track for expressing gratitude and joy.
“Thankful” encourages listeners to appreciate both the extraordinary and ordinary aspects of life. From the sun brightening up the day to the moon gracing the night sky, from family gatherings to favorite pastimes, the song reminds us that there’s always something to be grateful for. The chorus, with its simple yet powerful refrain of “Oh, I’m thankful/ Oh, I'm thankful for you…” is bound to stick in listeners’ minds and hearts, serving as a gentle reminder to count our blessings throughout the day.
As one of the most respected and authentic contemporary children’s music artists today, Snooknuk is at the forefront of a growing wave of black artists revolutionizing kids’ music. Her approach to creating family-friendly tunes that address everyday situations and emotions has made her a favorite among parents and educators alike. Songs like “Thankful” spare families the need for repeated lectures and instead turn everyday repetitive family rituals into wonderful pop-centric musical extravaganzas.
As we enter the holiday season, “Thankful” reminds us that the greatest gifts are often the ones we already have – the love of family and friends, the comfort of home, and the simple pleasures that make each day special. By fostering an attitude of gratitude from an early age, Snooknuk’s music helps build resilience and a positive outlook that can last a lifetime.
“Thankful” is now streaming on all major platforms! Add Snooknuk’s newest hit to your family’s playlist, and let it bring warmth, love, and gratitude into your home this holiday season and beyond.
