Pickleberry Pie Hospital Concerts for Kids uses the healing power of music to help kids feel like kids again! We bring professional musicians into hospitals and other institutions to work directly with kids, bringing joy and comfort.
We are partnering with Ollie’s Orchestra to bring backpacks of instruments and virtual monthly rhythm circles to kids with cancer. Find out more here: https://www.olliesorchestra.org

Pickleberry Pie brings music to children in hospitals and special needs facilities throughout the US. We are providing virtual and in-person visits and we have just launched a new Pickleberry Pie Kids website with concert videos, streaming audio channels from Kids Public Radio, games and more!
If you know of a sick child who could benefit from a personalized song written and performed by professional songwriters, have the parent or guardian go here to fill out the form.
Song of Love Request
“While hospitalization is tough for families and patients alike, the opportunity to allow a child to sing, dance, smile, and to enjoy being a normalized child is like no other. We are extremely grateful to have access to Pickleberry Pie and their performers, and hope that we continue with the opportunity to work with such wonderful artists.”
– Lindie McDonough, Child Life, Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital
“The hospital can be very stressful. So when there are treats that make things feel less like a hospital, that is a God-send. Thank you for offering comfort, it mattered big time.”
-Jennifer Harvey, Mom of J.R.
“Thank you for caring for kids who need more joy in their lives.”
-Joan Gilkison, The Joan L. and Robert C. Gilkison Foundation
