In 2003, Lisa Loeb released "Catch The Moon," the first of what would end up becoming many children's albums. On the album, Loeb covers classics like "Big Rock Candy Mountain" and "Oh Susanna," making car sing-alongs a bit nostalgic sounding for the Gen X and Millenial parents playing the songs for their children.
Though much of the singer's success these days comes from streaming services like Amazon hosting her children's records, Loeb still makes music for her more mature fans as well. Of her music, she says, "I still do 'real' music. Even my most recent adult-oriented record, there were two songs on it that were written during sessions that were supposed to be specifically for kids material. The longer I'm doing this, the more that the lines blur, and it just becomes the chance to fill the need that I've found for universally-themed songs. That's been a goal of mine for years, and those songs tend to land within the children's genre of music now," (via Billboard).
Next time your kid asks you to play a Loeb children's album, don't be afraid to sing along.
