Amy Lee to release kid's album

2016-08-21 by Right-clicker mentality | 30 Comments
Evanescence vocalist and solo artist Amy Lee has announced that she will release a children's album on Sept 30th on Amazon Music. The album will be called Dream Too Much, and it will feature 9 new songs as well as three covers from The Beatles, Sesame Street and the 1956 song "Goodnight My Love."

The album started as a small project for Lee's son Jack, and it will feature Lee's father and her husband Josh Hartzler, as well as Amy's sisters and other musicians from her extended family. In an interview with Rolling Stone, she said:

"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.'"

"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."

Has children's music always had acid trip lyrics?

stoked for this. going out of her comfort zone, and children's music can be cool if done with imagination, as it requires one to ditch the clichés employed in more "adult" music. the song she released sounds good too tbh

song sounds like "good enough" from the open door. this is also not the first time she's done kid's music, as she was feature on the muppets commemoration album

hoping for new evanescence too

New Evanescence will take a while. This is cute, though.

I really don't know how I feel about this. I've always wanted to hear solo stuff from Amy, but never would I have imagined it would be in the form of children's music.

I like the vocals, but the concept weirds me out too much to fully enjoy it.

i feel like aiming for the high-hanging fruit in Evanescence jokes is not worth the effort required

i feel like y'all should jam their s/t smh

it could be argued that not shooting at all would be more dignified
