Raffi says he’s working on a song about democracy written for kids

VANCOUVER — Children’s singer Raffi says he’s planning a song about democracy written especially for young listeners.

The “Baby Beluga” creator says the idea came to him about a week ago, and since then, he’s been working away on the lyrics.

He says they’ll include the line “A, B, C, D — democracy.”

Raffi offered the sample backstage at the Juno Awards industry dinner, where he accepted a children’s album of the year win for “Penny Penguin,” a record he recorded with Good Lovelies.
