The pair took home the award for Best Children’s Album with “Harmony,” whose title track was recognized as one of Spotify’s most popular children’s songs in 2024 and one of Spotify’s 50 best kids songs of 2025.

The father-daughter team joins Here & Now‘s Robin Young to talk about their music, which focuses on positivity, inclusion, community and friendship.
