46 Famous Children of Musicians

Children of Famous MusiciansA pretty simple list this month: a bunch of famous children of musicians – or should that be children of famous musicians? I’ve kept it at kids who have followed in their parents footsteps into the music industry, so folks like Liv Tyler and Stella McCartney don’t score a slot. And while not all of them have hit the big time, they have all released albums as part of their musical careers. And if ever there was a list that’s asking for help from readers to submit additional ones through the comments box below, this is it!
