Background:
Choo Choo Soul was developed by video game designer Greg Johnson while working on his project “ToeJam & Earl III, Mission to Earth” for the Xbox. Burke Treischmann, who was the audio lead and music director on the project, had a working relationship with Greg for over 15 years. The two met Genevieve Goings when she auditioned for one of the voiceover roles in the game. Although she didn’t land the lead part, she recorded several character voices, some of which were gospel singers. Genevieve suggested actually singing the lines as opposed to speaking them. Greg and Burke were so blown away by the soul in her voice that Greg edited the script, adding over 10 pages of new singing lines for Genevieve.

The music is contagious and soulful, with a focus on trains and learning. After the completion of the project, Greg pitched the CD around to various outlets, hoping for a distribution deal or possibility of an animated series. Having a working relationship with Disney from a previous pitch, Greg sent the CD in and the response was amazing. Genevieve and Greg were flown to Los Angeles for what turned out to be an unprepared audition in front of a classroom of 4-5 year olds. The children loved her and the execs at Playhouse Disney decided to move ahead with filming 10 interstitials that now air on the Disney Channel daily and feature Genevieve as the Star in character as the Train Conductor assisted by DC, her beatboxing, and breakdancing engineer.

In  2007 “Choo-Choo Soul with Genevieve!” was honored with a PARENTS CHOICE AWARD for Children’s television! In 2008 Disney Records released a compilation CD/DVD of CHOO- CHOO SOUL through Amazon to rave reviews!
 
 Choo Choo Soul has become a favorite in Concert as well, performing at Walt Disney World, and the prestigious “Target Festival Of Books” in Boston, Chicago, and New York City in 2007, and in Los Angeles, (April) Boston (September) and New York City (October) 2008. And most recently on “The Disney Music Block Party Tour”.
