Children music album by Amy Lee released in September 30 2016 through Amazon. Digital and physical, the album is released under Amy's own discography: Amy Lee Music.

Concept and recording

With inspiration from her two-year-old son Jack, the album started as a studio-time present to her father, a guitar player and one-time Gong Show champion, who always played music in the Lee home[1].

Vin1.jpg Dad has always been talking about making some kid songs for Jack to have later in life. [My husband suggested,] 'You guys should just do it, get in the studio together, you've never been in the studio together, you're both musicians.[1] Vin2.jpg


Lee and her father joined forces in Fort Worth, Texas, for a few sessions that promptly grew into a project that enveloped much of her family. Her dad played ukulele, dobro and banjo; Lee teamed with sisters Carrie and Lori for some Andrews Sisters–style harmonies; her uncle Tom plays guitar, bass and harmonica; and her son Jack even makes a cameo[1].

Vin1.jpg We've been saying, even if we're the only ones who ever heard it ... it was worth it because it means so much to us as a family and we love it. So, I'm very proud of it and it was very fulfilling to be able to do that together. ... I'm always looking for ways that I can expand myself creatively and this was a surprise. This kind of came out of a very random place and a very pure place. It was just for ourselves and it turned into something really beautiful.[1] Vin2.jpg
