Rock the Vote: Who Should We Rockabye Next?
Hey lullaby lovers,
We've updated our poll at the Rockabye Baby! online store. Go check it out and vote for your favorite candidate to be lullabied. If your choice isn't on the poll, leave it here in the comments. Your pick may make it onto future ballots.
Some of you may wonder why we haven't released lullaby renditions of all the great rock bands on the poll yet. It takes months and even up to a year to make a perfect lullaby album. We work really closely with the producers, draft after draft, to get the instruments sounding as soft and sweet as possible. We hope the work pays off in the sound of silence coming from your nursery!
So what are we up to now? Lullaby Renditions of Queen is still rocking the cradle and Aerosmith is coming out Sept. 15, with liner notes by Steven Tyler! We're hard at work on our lullaby renditions of Guns N' Roses and it's so fabulous we can't stand it. That will be followed up by Kanye West. Oh, yes, you heard us right! Our first Rap-a-bye Baby! It's going to be super swell.
Not only that, but this fall we have a way cool gift edition coming out -- it's a download card good for any Rockabye Baby! digital album, housed in an adorable eco-friendly package with a baby food recipe, temporary tattoos, paper dolls, and more fun stuff. This is going to be the world's best baby shower gift, because you don't have to guess which CDs your friends want, or what they might already have. View it here.
Oh, yeah, we updated the look of our blog, too! What do you think?
That's a lot of work for such sleepy bears to handle, but luckily for us, napping is always encouraged at lullaby world headquarters.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ,
Your friends at Rockabye Baby!

Awesome, Emmy! Thanks for the suggestions! We’ve got a couple of those in your list lined up already – but we’ll definitely jot the others down.

I’m completely disappointed. Some awful bands listed.
Where’s Alice in Chains. They have soo much good musice, they’d be easy. Like the Soundgarden idea (or maybe just call it Chris Cornell, and include all his work). One last suggestion- STP.
Johnathan
Well hopefully you won’t be disappointed with some of the bands that are on our list for next year! There are definitely some gems headed your way!
stacieh
I think RHCP would be great! With them having a new CD out soon it would be awesome to have a daytime and bedtime jam for my son! :)

Please please pleeeease do Coheed & Cambria next! My son LOVES their music but not all of the lyrics are going to be appropriate as he gets older and understands them so an instrumental (besides the string one of their 2nd album that’s out) would be A-MAZING! Thank you for asking!
