Jeremy recently began writing and recording children's music under the Jeremy Fisher Junior banner upon the birth of his daughter, as part of a drive to bring music into her everyday life. Music gets her up, gets her going, and calms her down at the end of the day. It gives her a framework to express emotions and learn about the world.
