Parents and their children will soon be soothed by the voice of multi-platinum recording artist and new father, Nick Lachey, who is set to release his first-ever lullaby album, “A Father’s Lullaby,” this March in partnership with Fisher-Price, Inc., a subsidiary of Mattel, and Mood Entertainment.
Lachey and wife, Vanessa, welcomed their son Camden in Sept. 2012 and have been reveling in parenthood ever since. “When I first learned that I was going to be a father, I was inspired to create a special tribute to my son,” said Lachey. “Music has always been an incredibly significant part of my life and a meaningful way in which I express myself. Creating this album allowed me to further connect with Camden while also sharing the experience with families who are on a similar journey of welcoming a new life into their world.”
The album will feature twelve heartfelt songs, four of which are original tracks Lachey co-wrote including “Father’s Lullaby,” “Once Upon a Time,” “Sleepy Eyes” and “Another Day Is Done.” Additional hand-picked titles Lachey covers on the album include “All Through the Night,” “Baby Mine,” “You Are My Sunshine,” “All the Pretty Little Horses,” “When You Wish Upon A Star,” “Godspeed (Sweet Dreams),” “Hush, Little Baby” and “Brahms’ Lullaby.”
“A Father’s Lullaby” will be available for download on iTunes and Amazon.com on March 13th, 2013 and will roll out to major national retailers including Toys”R”Us, Target and Walmart in April 2013.
