Dino, Desi and Billy were sons of Dean Martin and Desi Arnez (Lucille Ball's husband). Billy was a family friend. This group had a couple of charted hits. The fathers were far more notable. Dean Martin was a huge all around great entertainment star. Desi Arnez conducted a Latin jazz/pop orchestra and sang. He also was a big TV star.
Jesseyeric, this is a great topic. There are many more 2nd generation musicians, in all of music, but I will give others a chance before I respond again. -

I have all of Julian Lennon's work and I think he is very talented.
He suffered from lack of good promoting, in my opinion or too many people tried to hold his work up against his dad's songs ( talk about a tough act to follow!). As he is not Yoko's son, I understand he got absolutley no advice or help form her, which may have been a good thing!
Arlo Guthrie is a great folk singer and he made some cool songs, also he is very interesting to listen to in interviews.
I don't know if Gary Lewis counts, as his dad , Jerry was a comic actor, not a musician, but his group created some excitement in the late 60's and he had a few hits that were kind of nice little pop songs. -

Maybe I can make up for it by finding more national musicians that are related. It will be harder. Maybe there are a lot more out there. At some point we have to be running out of relatives.

Very good. Arlo Guthrie's dad was Woody Guthrie, a great songwriter and folk singer. The great folk song we probably would remember is: "This Land Is Your Land" ( '........ This land is my land. From California, to the New York Islands .......... This land was made for you and me.') -

Great topic Jessey.
Ringo Starr's son Zak Starkey plays drums for Roger Daltrey/Pete Townshend (The Who) and I believe he's still with Oasis.He might have played for Ringo Starr and his All Starr band at some point as well. -
