World renowned singer/songwriter DARIA (author of the Earth Day Song | We’ve Got The Whole World In Our Hands) created an official The Recess Project Inclusive Playground song called 'All Are Welcome Here’ and it's time to make a music video representing inclusive rockstars!
DARIA (Daria Marmaluk-Hajioannou) has spent almost four decades performing in the USA and around the world. Hailed as “an ambassador of song” she has represented the USA in Seville Spain’s World Expo and been featured in the Huffington Post for her musical work with children around the world. The Christian Science Monitor commented: “When Daria Marmaluk-Hajioannou makes music, the world listens – literally!"
DARIA has won numerous national awards for her culturally diverse music and is a published author of over 500 multicultural resources for the music classroom.

Her Earth Day anthem: “We’ve Got The Whole World In Our Hands” is used in over a dozen different countries around the world. DARIA’s “Beautiful Rainbow World” song is used in Australia as part of a “Respecting Others” curriculum, in South African schools as part of a “Teach Tolerance” initiative and in a recent book – BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW WORLD - that features dazzling images of multicultural and mixed race children from around the world.
Most recently DARIA has been given a 2022 Global Music Award for her pandemic song for healthcare workers: “Thanks To The Doctors And Nurses” and created a special song - The Inclusive Playground Song - to bring attention to the need for building inclusive playspaces for all kids!
