“Our Cd is really good. We found it to be a very useful resource for young children’s learning and in developing rhythm and beat skills. Popular with children and adults alike, it is something completely different and I would recommend it to anyone!”
Christine Kiely, Programme Manager, SureStart Downham, London
About Keeping the Beat.
The organisation was founded by two accomplished musicians Steve Scott and Greg Bone, whose previous credits include session work for Ronan Keating, Tom Jones, Kylie Minogue, Sting, Girls Aloud and Simply Red, as well as music for the film Batman Forever and the latest Coca-Cola advert.
They developed their first children's CD after being disappointed at the range of children's music that is currently on offer, which they found to be mainly of
"...poor musical quality, with tunes which many children do not relate to, and which few adults could bear to listen to more than once!”
The Keeping The Beat network is constantly growing, as more join with a common interest in helping to develop resources to aid early learning for our children.

Keeping The Beat’s debut CD is already being used by parents, schools, nurseries, child minders, education advisers and community workers such as SureStart employees. Listen to a sample or purchase a CD.
Customised CDs
Keeping The Beat also offer a service for creating personalised CDs. This is aimed at programmes such as SureStart and encourages parental and community involvement, through the selection of songs and artwork for the CD.
