My mom didn't sing much :) but my dad used to play slack key Hawaiian guitar for me. Still does, when I can coax him.

Oddly enough, my grandmother used to sing "Bushel and a Peck", which was always a song I loved, and then I discovered "Guys and Dolls" and had a whole new context for it! :D

Also, my mom's had Danny Doyle's "Twenty Years A'Growin'" album for ages and ages, so I grew up listening to those songs, and they're some of my favorites to this day.
