Beatles Baby! is the tenth studio album[1] by American children's musician Caspar Babypants, aka Chris Ballew, formerly the lead singer of the Presidents of the United States of America.
The album consists of 21 covers of original Beatles songs.[2] In 2013, Ballew released Baby Beatles! After supposedly waking up singing "Strawberry Fields Forever" one day, he decided to record a second covers album.[3]
Although recorded on a variety of instruments—many of which differ greatly from those on the original recordings—Ballew paid homage to the British band by copying several of their recording techniques, including between-track comments and a three-guitar solo on "The End". Additionally, all the tracks were mixed to match the volume and levels of every other Caspar Babypants song previously recorded.[4]
The artwork for the album was created by Seattle-based artist Kate Endle, Ballew's wife.
