“Singing to him calms their nerves,” he tells me in NYC during a Toys R Us event promoting his album A Father’s Lullaby. “We use a combination of—we call it the three S’s. Swaddle, story and then singing. Just setting the mood for winding down, chilling out. I think they take their cue from you, so he hears a song, and he knows it’s time to start getting into sleep mode.”

What’s his favorite bedtime ballad?

“I like to think it’s a song called Sleepy Eyes that I used to hum to him before he was born, and when he was born,” he says. “I actually wrote lyrics to it, and that’s ‘our’ song. When I put him down at night, that’s the song I sing to him. At least in my mind, that’s his favorite.”
