Essie Jain, a British musician based in NYC, recently wrote and recorded a new album of lullabies for babies/children and their parents called 'Until The Light Of The Morning'
So how did Essie come about doing this lullaby project? Essie explains it like this...
"My family and friends back home had started to have kids. It became apparent to me that they were always looking for new music to soothe their babies at nap and bedtime, and as a result of hearing the same CD for the hundredth time, they were quietly going crazy listening to songs that were working for their little ones, but certainly didn’t do it for them. It was then I realized what my next project would be. This record is made for every parent and every baby (and anyone else) who needs to rest and head off into the land of sleep. The record is designed to unwind itself as it goes along, as the music becomes softer and more relaxed, eventually becoming as instrumental as the heart beat."
'Until the Light of the Morning' truly is a beautiful album. It will drift your little ones in a wonderful and blissful sleep. And mummies and daddies will love it too....the calm, the quiet, the soothing sounds of lullabies always seem to do the trick.

So the other day I received this email from Sharon DeVellis....
Truth be told I had no idea...but I'm all about celebrating all things Duran Duran. They had prominent places up on my bedroom walls as a teenager. I had a massive crush on one Nigel John Taylor. Le sigh.
So to celebrate National Duran Duran Appreciation Day, I figured a video flashback was in order.
Enjoy.
