I've become a little more idiosyncratic in my selections of videos to feature here on the site, which is probably partially a function of the diminished visibility of kids' music videos generally. There's so much content out there that musicians may as well just make the videos that entertain themselves.
While the duo Like Father Like Son might be new, the two musicians comprising the duo are not. Both father Lou Gallo (solo) and son Frank Gallo (in his band Rolie Polie Guacamole) have been making music for kids for a number of years, and now they've joined forces. Their new album Sun Is a Star comes out this week, and features Brady Rymer, Katie Ha Ha Ha, and Dean Jones, who also produces the album.
Not only do they share the songwriting burden on this new album, they share a love of running, which is borne out in this new video for "Like Father Like Son." While I doubt the video will "wow" anyone, I just really responded to the enjoyment the Gallos clearly share in running through various locales. Father and son are planning on running the New York City Marathon together in 2019, so perhaps it's a little preview. I really dig the gentle folk-rocker -- and their clear good-natured attitude within.
