Songs, Music that Our City Dads Love to Parent By

June 26, 2017 by Matt Schneider

Another season of our popular The Modern Dads Podcast concludes with a very special musical episode. Five of our City Dads from around the country join us to discuss the songs that have inspired and informed their parenting.

City Dads Group columnist Whit Honea discusses the cover of a classic Rodgers and Hammerstein tune, done by the late Ray Charles, that he uses to get his kids going in the morning.

NYC Dad James Lopez, who blogs at Cool4Dads / #FatherhoodIsLit, shares some of the parenting lessons he uses from a song he loved in his childhood, the Notorious B.I.G. tune “Juicy.”

NYC Dad Josh Kross, who produces the acclaimed rap music podcast The Cipher, discusses a classic-rock station staple from Pink Floyd he uses to encourage his son to take advantage of his time as a kid.

Designer Daddy blogger Brent Almond talks us about a song he wrote and recorded for his son that has made a big impact in their family’s life.

NYC Dad Jason Green, who blogs at One Good Dad blogger, finds solace in a famous Rolling Stones song that tells us about how his dreams have changed — for the better — since becoming a father.
