Live performance, come sing and dance along!

Little Miss Ann aka Ann Torralba is an award winning family musician, a former Chicago Public School teacher, a mom, a veteran instructor at Chicago's Old Town School of Folk Music, and a first generation Filipina-American. With a deep understanding of what it's like to live in between two worlds as a Filipina-American, Little Miss Ann's music offers children an opportunity to connect with their blended identities, explore their own roots and traditions, and gain a sense of belonging.

Lively interactive full-band performances and playful down-to-earth original tunes offer a joyful perspective on important themes such as relationships, adoption, emotions, togetherness, and inclusion. Drawing on her own real-life experiences, like visiting the Philippines for the first time only two years ago, Ann shares inspirational and educational songs and stories that amplify Filipino culture and traditions, with a distinct point of view.
