Sparrow Sleeps

I just had a daughter in early October, 2013. She is beautiful, and she spends a lot of time sleeping, eating, pooping, and crying. When she cries, it is usually because she is tired, hungry, or poopy. When she's crying because she's tired, she calms down by listening to music. These are songs I've re-created for her, and songs that I want to share with you.

Sparrow Sleeps is Casey Cole and Peter Lockhart. They create albums of lullaby renditions of their favorite artists and have also released an album of original toddler tunes called Sparrow and Friends Start A Band! featuring guest vocals from the singers of Yellowcard, The Early November, Copeland, The Get Up Kids, and others.

The midwest-duo met sometime around 2008 through mutual friends in the Indianapolis music scene. Five years later Casey, somewhat accidentally, started Sparrow Sleeps shortly after his daughter, Sparrow, was born. He created a handful of lullabies for Sparrow and also shared them with the Internet. Peter and Casey joined up in 2014 to take Sparrow Sleeps to the next level. The two have released over 70 albums in the subsequent years.

The group has received support from artists like Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, Thrice, State Champs, Neck Deep, and many others. Their releases have been featured by publications such as Billboard, Kerrang!, Alternative Press, Rocksound, Loudwire, and Substream Magazine.
