A lot of people who are successful in their professional lives will push their kids into the same business, and art and music are no exception. Like anything else, it helps to have connections.
For the May Record Club, nominate up to two albums from artists who are themselves the child/grandchild/niece/nephew of a successful career musician. Name the family connection too. And remember, April Fools is over so you can pick something good.

My first nomination is Charlotte Gainsbourg, "Rest". She is the daughter of preeminent French pop musician Serge Gainsbourg. This album has the song "Deadly Valentine" of which I am a big fan. I didn't realize until looking this up that the album also has plenty of famous collaborations. It appears she's been surrounded by famous people her whole life.

North Mississippi Allstars One of the most memorable concerts I have ever been to.
I didn't plan it, I was just trying to come up with a theme, but I am quite enjoying learning about these connections.

What do you do when you're the grandson of a true country legend and the son of an also successful country singer (who traded on the name and added pot and partying), and you're a couple albums into a career, but what you really want is to make metal and hardcore?
You make psychobilly. Hank Williams III, "Damn Right Rebel Proud"
Loud Thread denizens, just try the first 30 seconds:

Max Weinberg is a famous drummer, known to me as a long time member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. Max has a son, his name is Jay. Here's a picture of them both meeting Jim Root from Slipknot when Jay was a young slip of a lad wearing a Corey Taylor mask:  Jay has been the drummer in Slipknot since 2014, how 'bout that? In light of that I'm nominating Slipknot - We Are Not Your Kind (2019) |

Boss can probably adapt to blast-beats. |

Tricky - Pre-Millennium Tension (1996)
Adrian "Tricky" Thaws is Neneh Cherry's nephew. Oh god this is embarrassing, but I was way off in this familial assertion. Here's what I think happened: I was mixing up two songs that were American radio singles in the late '90s, Eagle-Eye Cherry's "Save Tonight" (which is on Roy Batty's nomination) and Finley Quaye's "Sunday Shining". I had a memory of hearing that Quaye is Tricky's uncle and mixed up the two while also recalling that Neneh Cherry appears on Tricky's Nearly God. I really should have put it together because Trick's debut is named after his mother, Maxine Quaye, but I'm apparently becoming senile. No, I'm not going to pretend Finley Quaye had a substantial career to keep the nomination alive. I'll think of something else. |

I was like "I guess that's why she appeared on the Nearly God album!" |

My kid is really into them, I think in part because the youngest one is legit only like five years older than her. |
