Formerly the front man for the critically hailed 1980s band the Del Fuegos, the Pete Seegeresque musician with the funny hair began recording what he calls "all-ages" music after having his first child in the mid '90s, and he has become the family-music genre's most outspoken and eloquent advocate.
